I’m going to explain my story and express my concerns to warn other host in order for this not to happen to them. I’ve been a host for several years now. I trusted Airbnb would be there part as far as a background check. The guest new to Airbnb (2 months) had a felony charge pending. Aggravated assault with deadly weapon. I found this information online and shared it with Airbnb after the guest activity fired a stun gun/taser gun in the Airbnb room! Since the guest was armed it was a scary situation. Airbnb suggested calling police, I did. Then the police wouldn’t come because of his record and the fact he was armed or possibly armed! Airbnb put me in a very very unsafe situation. I’m afraid to continue hosting… what if I got shot? What if next time I’m not so lucky?
