Had a 3 day guest staying in our 1 bedroom apartment. This beautiful place leads to our indoor/outdoor 20 ft hydro pool. As usual her picture didnt match her when we met upon arrival. The weekend seemed to go good, said her daugter was with her and her other daughter who lived 5 minutes away was going to visit with her 2 teenage sons. All went good, she left and we cleaned the place, left a review we enjoyed hosting Gem and her daughters.
Two days later she sent a text to us saying she wanted to slit our throats and kill us. Yes we call the cops, they are investigating.
Airbnb needs to screen there guests more like other booking sites do, and step up the policy on first time bookers following the rules.
If the problems continue they are going to have as much trouble finding hosts as they do cities that allow this.
