@Kathryn-and-Christophe0 I read your "disgruntled guests" short review....the one you mentioned. Then I went and read your lengthly public reponse to them. BRAVO BRAVO. ( you educated them) hahahaha.
I was wondering if you knew that they don't see your response UNLESS, they go back to your listing and read it? Airbnb does not send that public reponses to the guests at all. So make sure you send that to them via their ABB account. You have every right to do so.
So what I do, for all of my PUBLIC responses, is copy and paste it into the guests Airbnb account where messages were shared back and forth during booking to ensure they get the proper education they need so they don't go to another listing without reading what a host took the time to write in their factual listing. Most of the time, 96% to be exact, I am writing a thankful public response asking them to come back soon. 🙂
And the few less then stellar guests like you had, got a proper education from me through my public response being sent to them. Most likely they didn't read that either.....just like they didn't bother to read it was a FAMILY HOME that has dogs and cats. hahaha. smh.
And the amazing 5 Star plus plus guests who checked out yesterday actually got a gift certificate from me sent to her ABB account giving her a ONE FREE NIGHT to her next 5 nights stay with us when she comes back next year. She was thrilled and promises to use it, and bringing her sister with her. Missing her already. :))
If you feel that me or another host have helped you, feel free to click on the "thumbs up" button at the end of any post. Thank you so much.
