It says something when you can Internet search "What to say in the review when an Airbnb guest takes all the beverages and snacks" and find a whole thread.
I just had a guest.. check in at 12 mn and left at 10:30 am
One person . He took all 5 canned and or bottled beverages. ( LaCroix, coke, other Sparkling water, regular bottled water etc.)
The garbage showed he only drank one Sprite.
I put out 7 individual assorted wrapped snacks. Granola bar, nut mix, bagged chips etc.
He took them all.
WOW.
In addition he did drink/use the carafe of milk, which is fine, I provide that to place in the instant coffee or tea. He also took with him the bagel and butter I put in the fridge.
I put out an assortment of snacks so the picky eater has something to chose from, not to take everything home.
I do indeed have a polite and nice note that says things not used or eaten in the suite are to be left for the next guest not taken home.
After being rightfully and dutifully not happy I decided to leave a good review as he left the suite just fine.
But if he ever asks to comes back I will have ONE regular bottled water and One snack.
I am a value priced suite with no cleaning fee with nice amenities, but I don't enjoy being taken advantage of.
I hope we all have a new respect for hotel/ motels and don't take extra items from them.
