host issue

We have a very good track record of 18 stays, 6 of which complimented us on things like "kept the place tidy" and "clean".

Our current host came over to change out the gas butane and it was in the middle of our busy day.   He started picking

on us about how "messy" the house was and insulting us: Hasn't anyone ever taught you to clean?  This is disrespectful!

Don't you know how to sweep?    He was pointing out minor issues like how we hadn't swept the hallway outside the apartment building, huh?  And the blanket on the couch was not straight, and we put the broom in a place he didn't like.   He then started inspecting the place looking inside the oven and everywhere to find things to complain about. We had lived in the apartment a full month at this point

and have 3 weeks to go.   I feel like he's trying to make sh** up to get us out of there. Maybe he double booked?

He threatened to return unannounced and that if we have the place not up to his standards he kick us out.  All this in

fast and furious French, by the way.     Can he actually do that?

@Robin1389 I would message Airbnb and explain what has happened. This host seems somewhat unhinged but its hard to really comment without seeing the state of the place. We rarely go into our apartments during a guests stay but did one time (I can't remember why and the guest was present) and the untidiness was off the scale. We made no comment but when they left the place was pristine which shows how unfair your host is being.
