The introduction of Airbnb disrupted and changed the hospitality industry in many positive ways. It started offering more authentic, convenient, and cheaper experiences for travelers and allowed homeowners to earn some extra income by renting out their unused space, from budget rooms or apartments to fancy villas. I’d say that’s a win-win for everyone.

However, as with most things in life, there are bound to be some disappointments or things that don’t particularly go to plan. From mushrooms growing in the bathroom door to extortionate cleaning fees and child-sized furniture, scroll down to find some of the strangest Airbnb conditions guests had to endure.

I Feel Really Creeped Out, As I Didn't Notice It Earlier

ITimbrell Report

According to a 2021 study, a lot can go wrong when staying in an Airbnb. A data scientist, Asher Fergusson, collaborated with a few researchers to find out the problems that guests are most likely to face when staying at short-term rentals. 

The project even received funding from ASIS International, and over 2 and a half years the team used machine learning and natural language processing techniques to analyze X (previously Twitter) posts associated with guest complaints.

“Our number one goal when starting out with this research was to find out what’s most likely to go wrong for Airbnb guests,” Fergusson said to Forbes Women.

In total, they analyzed over 127,183 posts published between January 1, 2015 and September 20, 2020 and broke them down into types. The results ranged from frustrating to dangerous.

“We found thousands of cases of account hacking with vacation dollars being stolen via fraudulent bookings as well as many other scams,” says Fergusson. “Then there were police interventions, bodily harm, threats, bug infestations, invasions of privacy via hidden cameras, long-term negative health impacts after the customer checked out of the Airbnb and so much more. Even in 2021, the amount of illegal, unsafe or fake listings on the platform is staggering—more than any of us probably realize.”

Ferguson published the report, saying that it was important that Airbnb users know what awaits them when they’re using the platform. “Countless Airbnb guest complaints we reviewed on Twitter suggested that the company is very good at circumventing responsibility,” he says. “Their customer service will often go silent or cite some obscure, confusingly worded terms of service when guests rightfully request refunds for services not rendered. It’s important for users to understand renting an Airbnb is not the same as booking a hotel.”

There's definitely a view of the sea - a very tiny view, more like a glimpse. Look at the left side of the table. Then go up passed the metal balcony railing, and up over the wooden fence. And that's where you will find a slim piece of light blue. That's the view.

I bet this was described as a child's room and they just didn't care because it was cheaper. Those chairs are visibly tiny (if they were full-size chairs, the bed would be about 4 metres long) and the bed even has rails to stop a child rolling out of bed. And now to be funny a large man is breaking a bed meant only to hold the weight of a 5-year-old.

He believes that it’s easier to scam people with short-term rentals as they have little supervision as opposed to hotels. Reputable hospitality institutions are less likely to be massively deceiving people or constantly cancel reservations hours before guests have to arrive. Moreover, it’s rare to find a hotel that doesn’t have safety precautions like a smoke or carbon monoxide detector.

The Bathroom Door In My Airbnb Is Ineffective

BrianPhares Report

In order to stay safe and protected, Ferguson recommends treating rental reviews as a mystery novel. This means reading between the lines what the previous guest has written, as most of them don’t express the negatives directly. In addition, he advises to never book a place with zero reviews. Instead, he says to aim for rentals with a 4.85-star review average or higher.

It’s also important to look at the hosts’s overall reviews, not just the listing’s. Be sure to reach out to the host before the stay and document anything that goes wrong or seems suspicious with video evidence. This helps to get a refund with less hassle.

From OP: More on this: So I am on a scholarship in Germany with my SO and we rented a single room with separate bathroom in a flat very close to my Institute. The description indicated that we can use the whole space, especially the kitchen and TV. So the room is, well, agreeable, not the cleanest but we can handle it - but the whole apartament is just a freaking joke. The owner is a stockbroker, seems a little bit off, he sleeps on a couch in the living room. He's German and he was trying to get me into a conversation about German invasion during II WW. We wanted to get a refund but then we realized that it's a waste of time, the procedure is long and we can live through it. But at least I can release my disappointment here.

We had one switch in my old house that didn’t work for anything. We were there for years and tried to figure it out. An electrician said it went somewhere, but he couldn’t figure out where. I just kept imagining us flipping the switch and our neighbor thinking their house was haunted.

Those other switches would go to turning outlets on and off, that way you can have a lamp plugged into an outlet and turn it off at the wall. My house is the same way.

Dirty Floor At Airbnb “Is Typical And Not An Indicator Of Dirt”

Dirty Floor At Airbnb “Is Typical And Not An Indicator Of Dirt”

I’m posting to get some reactions to an experience I had at an Airbnb rental. I rented a place for my father and me to stay while he recovered from surgery, and I expected a high level of hygiene accordingly to keep him safe. I ended up spending hours after checking in cleaning (after I took an Uber to get cleaning supplies). The company representative was trying to tell me that it’s normal for the Swiffer wipes to appear "to be removing dirt." I’m pretty baffled by their response, as I know that floor was filthy. But could there be an element of truth to what they’re saying? Do some types of flooring give off color like that?

And because we changed houses, there's no way to leave a review on the original house.
