@Linda677 Don’t blame yourself for the guest’s failure to read and comprehend your listing.
If anything, they should blame the public school system they attended.
I don’t negotiate with “terrorist” and I promise on everything I love, I will call you out on the front lawn if you threaten me.
There’s a country music song by Scotty McCreery that goes “Lord I wish I had a pause button”.
On Airbnb, we don’t have a “pause button” but we do have a “reset button”.
What i mean by that is your position of being new is also an advantage because you can just scrap that first listing and create a new one from scratch.
No negative review, no “host cancelled” and a fresh start.
Also understand, a guest can’t review you until they have actually stayed with you.
If you take this reservation, go get a huge Costco size bottle of Tums because your stomach will be upset in knots the entire time wondering what these idiots will come up with to complain about.
Get on the phone today with Airbnb and tell them the guest threatened you and they cannot stay at your place. No piece of business is worth that upset stomach.
I don’t teach people how to read but I can teach people some manners and at the end of the day,
IT’S MY HOUSE, MY RULES AND IF YOU DONT LIKE IT? Keep scrolling.
Honey, you need a huge right now and a BIG STICK.
Good luck.
