Kai Lin- we are in the same experience as you and totally agree that the clarifications in the ratings by guests are not clear for them. ABb should explain this better or remove it. Location and value does does not mean they can rate low bc they personally feel they don't like location or wanted to pay less. We have had a handful of selfish narcissist "**" guests that were also a host, at one time or another, and they've all been the MOST difficult and annoying - lying about how many in group, bringing dogs that pee on everything, not being responsible enough to clean up their doo doo, stealing, do not communicate good at all, and then have audacity to rate us lower on areas that clearly did not warrant a lower rating. I asked this one recent guest why she did that and she stated that she "felt" it wasn't star quality because of issue like a bulb or needed to replace batteries in remote... are you kidding!!! This ** person never communicated one issue ever during her stay and had about 5 guests not listed and 5 dogs!!! Insane ** who thinks she can do whatever she wants and still be "a victim" grrrr these ** boomers! I DO NOT use instant book now because I am not hosting anyone like her again! These people do not care about your ratings or business as a host and many times they are just spiteful opinionated unhappy people. So, nope! I had ABB remove my overly nice review to her and reported her profile to let ABB know she is breaking rules and policies. Not to mention, identification and verifications are ridiculous! Guests can book with unclear pictures, inaccurate names, incomplete profiles, and for other people using their account. Unbelievably unsafe and inconceivable business practices of ABB! Be selective and aware and good luck to you!
