So, to start I will take responsibility for not handling this correctly and trying to be a "nice guy"...
I had a guest, Katy from Katonah, NY, reserve a room for 4/20/18. About 30 min later I had a different guest reserve for 4/19/18. Then 30 min later Katy messages me and says she made a mistake and had meant to reserve for 4/19. I told her she just missed it. And she was charged by airbnb as it was the day before.
So, being the nice guy I am, I offer for her to take my bed. I would throw an air mattress I have into my office and sleep there. All of this messaging was done through airbnb app...we never exchanged phone numbers.
So before she gets there I remove all valuable or financially sensitive stuff from my bedroom and put it into my office. I also move my game camera into the office.
I check her in, and show her the house. I show her the room she will be staying in, and she deposits her things in there. I explain to her that the master bed is where the airbnb guests are staying, and then the office is where I'm staying.
That night I end up sleeping over at my girlfriends house and never coming home.
I get home at about 1030 am and both guests are checked out.
I check my game camera SD card like I always do and see that Katy opened my door and walked into my room and stood there looking around. I only had like a 5 second video on the game camera.
I message Katy to ask her about going into my room and she is not answering.
So, I dont even know that she stole anything, and as of yet it is hard to tell.
However, I though airbnb should know and I also thought future hosts should be aware...right? I mean, I know that I would certainly want to know this little nugget of information before accepting her as a guest.
I have the video and I filed a complaint with airbnb and have offered to send them the video.
I will update on here with what happens next
