Airbnb cancelations, deceptive listings, and unsafe conditions will be handled differently. But this raises more questions.
Yes this has happen to me! 2 months before going to Hawaii the host canceled no communication at just here is your money back! Which was full payment for a week.
Then rebooked yes they used wide angle lense
And made 500 sq ft (which they didn’t list) look like 1000 sq ft. Plus they said included washer and dryer! Yup in a laundry room. Yes when you stay a week it is nice to wash clothes when bring the amount because of washer and dryer. Small place not at all like the photos.
The Cancellation charges should go both ways even to AirBnB. Last year starting in April, AirBnB’s Instant Booking overrode bookings I had with AirBnB, VRBO, etc, and our own bookings.
It was a nightmare and AirBnB claimed it was my fault. I was being harrasses by AirBnB, VRBO and others including my confirmed visitors
because of the AirBnB overrides with Instant Booking. I had to close my account down for 5 months and lost a lot of bookings. In October VRBO contacted me to see if AirBnB acknowledged the problem, identify the problem to me, helped me, or compensated me. I told them no they had not and when I asked the AirBnB people in October, they finally admitted their problem but refused to explain it. Fines should be equal to all.
