Wanting to negotiate partial refund - is it unreasonable?

Hello, I’m staying at an airbnb for a month and I’m a few days in. However, I don’t feel super comfortable with the surrounding location because it seems sketchy.

 

The host seems nice and the actual airbnb seems fine. Nothing deviating a lot from the description and nothing dangerous that I’ve noticed. I would just prefer to stay elsewhere if possible.

 

Would it be unreasonable to ask for a partial refund? To be clear, I’m not asking to refund the days I’ve been here, but I just want to gauge if a partial refund for the remaining days would be disrespectful or troublesome for the host. I know I should’ve been more cautious of where I booked, but I’m here now so I wanted to see if this was an option.

Great question and obviously you are interested in being fair. Good of you. In essence you consider it fair to stay despite the fact you really rather not, unless given a break with the remaining price. Tricky realm, take it up with the host, explain your reasoning, such areas best worked out between guest & host, leaving Airbnb well out of it. Host may consider it fair also. Good luck.
