We are new to hosting and had a guest cancel their reservation today. They reserved 2 months and cancelled today so completed 18 days of their stay.
They stated that it smelled of pesticide and the internet didn't work properly. (The previous long term tenant used moth balls, and we thought we had taken care of it, but apparently we were just used to it.)
I had e-mailed him a day after he arrived and told him to please let us know if he needed anything.
He never told us there were any problems with anything. (I don't think the problem is that the internet was slow, I think he actually had it unplugged which I could have helped him with).
Air bnb refunded him a percentage and then also paid us out some of the remaining stay.
My question is we were very clear that we were available to help. So if he comes back and leaves us a bad review do we have anything to rebuttle? We would have taken care of the problems he had.
Would you refund him the rest of the stay? It's now been blocked off since May.
I really don't want a bad review. I feel like we worked hard to make his stay nice. 😞
