Broken House Rules: Smoking

Broken House Rules: Smoking

Hello out there,

 

I just returned to my apartment after my guest had departed to find that they had been smoking pot. My listing clearly states no smoking, and I'm not sure how to handle it. I'm a little upset and I don't want to handle the situaltion emotionally.

 

Thanks!

That may work, because most guest will not know that in reality your chance of collecting are slim to nil.

I had this happen to me in addition to a dog being snuck in ( I got pictures on security cameras) and a bed frame broken. It smelled so bad in the unit that no amount of cleaning and open windows helped.

 

Contacted Airbnb right away. If it wasnt for the picture and video of them smoking and sneaking a dog inside, I wouldn’t get any where. I got some compensation for the bed frame but for cleaning even though Airbnb Customer rep told and wrote me they cover it, in the end they didn’t. I’d hired outside help so I get an invoice to turn in but ended up covering it myself. Big time disappointment. Really had me reconsider being an Airbnb host.
