A guest and her boyfriend book my place for a week.
From Sunday to Thursday all is fine, until I discover they have locked themselves in their (my) private room with my laptop computer.
Once they let me in, after knocking 3 times - there is my computer, which they deny using and say "i must have left it there".
I tell them to pack their things and leave. I was very angry, I also call the police.
Two weeks later Airbnb email me to inform me that the guest have been given a full £412 refund, and that this amount will be DEDUCTED from my future hostings, until the monies are paid back in full.
Within the email it is written that this is a FINAL decision by Airbnb, and it cannot be contested.
At no point during the two weeks of 'investigation' was I consulted by Airbnb, the guest or the police.
