Guests Having Loud Wild Sex - everyone can hear it!

New guest checked in today. Was suppose to be a woman and her daughter. Its a woman and a guy. She has no Airbnb reviews. My guests rent a private room with its own entrance at the far end of the house. 

 

Tonight Im in the living room watching TV with my kids and I hear was sounds like a hardcore porno flick being blasted at full volume. Turns out its the guests... she is screaming so loud you could hear it on the planet Neptune. This is a very uncomfortable situation. 

 

I don't know how people can act like this in someone else's house when they know others are home. I really want to throw them out.

@Maureen544  I would just be straightforward but tactful. Take the booking guest aside if you can, and  "I just need to let you know that sound travels throughout the building, and even though you are in a separate apartment, the sound of your private fun is not at all private. I'm not a prude- enjoy yourselves, but try to tone it down several notches, okay?" 

 

Then get some earplugs just in case.

 

I had exactly the same situation, headboard banging and all, but I only host one guest at a time, and she had brought him home at 3 am. So I didn't have to put up with it for 4 nights, I just let her know the next morning she couldn't have anyone over to spend the night.

Another host told me, after I reported one of my more exuberant guests left his underwear in the bed, that she has special "underwear tongs." Now so do I,  although - luckily - I don't have to use them again.

And some plastic gloves? lol! (sigh - the life of a host).

This happens to us ALL the time.  But we expect it.  Our space is not shared, it's an attached guest house with its own entrance, so they have the entire place to themselves.  It's completely private and perfect for a couples get away.  We market it this way and leave out candles, flowers and a bottle of wine.  It's a converted basement on a hillside home so they are below the house.  Their ceiling is our bedroom floor.  We only really hear the loud ones, most seem to have sex quietly and we never know about it.  But every now and then the moans and groans drift up through the floor and my wife and I kinda smirk and giggle a bit.

I know this is an old topic, but I assume that now when a guest shows up that is not the scenario they said-you are cancelling their booking...

I have an attached apartment to my house and am having this problem right now. I should have seen the red flag when my guest told me she was picking up her boyfriend from the airport, coming* in from Canada. She lives in the nearby town and wanted a place until he can move into a rented apartment Feb. 1st. The first night I heard her so loud with the bed banging against the wall, I took a sleep aid to go back to sleep. Then this morning, around 10:00 am they started in again. Mind you, I have nothing against guests having sex during their stay, but the noise level travels throughout my house. This is a very uncomfortable  situation and am not sure how to approach her. They will be here 3 more nights.

Thanks Sarah, good advice. I texted her through airbnb and told her that the walls were thin and she was too loud Thursday night and Saturday morning. I don't think she got the message. Ive got my earplugs by my bed.
