I had a HOST, who decided to redecorate my listing..mind you it is a "Boarding House" so she only booked one room in a 7 bedroom house with dining room, living room, TV room , kitchen and common areas.
She rooted through cupboards and storage areas for Christmas decorations, not quite Thanksgiving yet...and set the table with plates cloth napkins with napkin rings, wine glasses and silverware. Lovely, but other guests wouldn't know it's just for show and might not want to move it or sit at the table? She re-arranged the front room and moved the container that has an umbrella and snow brushes...because it was "cluttered". She moved all of the books and the few decorations I have so it suited her taste. She didn't want the luggage rack or throw rugs in her room, so she placed them in the hall, in front of the room across from her room.
She said she couldn't wait to come back in her private message, because she is attending a continuing education program in my town. I gave her an okay review, hit NO to hosting her again and told her how inappropriate her actions were in the private message.
So far this year I have hady my share of weird guests. This one was right before the recent one I had to formally evict ( not an Airbnb guest, different platform)
I hope February is not as crazy. Fingers crossed 🤞
