Good day fellow host!
I have an issue with my last guest. As per my description, it says to turn off the aircondition before checking out.
Before accepting his booking request i told him to double check everything before I accept his request. I told him it helps because it manages the expectation of guest and at the same time it states the house rule of the host.
The guest checked out around 10am. As a busy host i only got to check our home around 9pm. They left the AC running and lights ON. I would like to charge the guest a penalty for this but reading previous stories here in the community i see that most of the time, if not all, host dont get anything.
Ive been a host since 2016 and I only encountered this. Also the guest is a first time Airbnb user.
Please help me approach this correctly.
Thank you fellow host!
