    I have generally had good experiences using Airbnb, which is why I was so disappointed with how my recent case was handled by customer service. Within an hour of checking into my Airbnb, I reported extremely loud music coming from another unit. The noise was so intense that it caused items inside the apartment to vibrate. The host acknowledged my complaint and contacted the building, and the music temporarily stopped before returning later that evening. I contacted Airbnb again and was advised by a representative to document the issue, so I made audio recordings that night and again the following morning. Because the noise continued and made the property uninhabitable, I left and booked another Airbnb. What disappointed me most was not the property itself, but Airbnb’s handling of my claim.

    Despite promptly reporting the issue, following the instructions given by their representative, and providing the requested recordings, I was later told the evidence was insufficient because the audio files did not contain verifiable time and location data. This requirement was never explained when I first reported the problem. It felt as though the burden kept changing after the fact. I understand that Airbnb needs to verify claims, but I believe there should be reasonable consideration for guests who report problems immediately, follow the guidance they are given, and act in good faith. Customer service should focus on resolving legitimate issues rather than creating additional obstacles. I hope Airbnb reviews its evidence requirements and complaint process so future guests receive clearer guidance and more consistent support.

    So I do not want to go into my whole story but we arrived at our Airbnb and it was trash and not maintained.. I had to spend another thousand dollars for a hotel. Immediately contacted host and customer service for Airbnb. Host knew the house was crap and knew how to play Airbnb. Contacted customer service by phone and message …no US based customer service and not helpful. It has now taken me over a week to get a tier 2 level after I threatened legal help. After all of this they are not going to get a refund .. Had pictures and vast amounts of messages with the host… crap company.

      Horrible company. July 16-20, Canadian Wildfire smoke covering the state of Michigan. Air quality ratings 500-600, hazardous. 0 is no pollution. The host refused a refund, full or partial, and would not let us reschedule either. Airbnb has a policy called Major Disruptive Events Policy which can be found on their website. This situation checks every specification needed for a refund. We're getting $300 of a very expensive reservation as Airbnb states we do not qualify. I'm now done with trying to rent through "hosts" and any middleman rental company.

      I rented Palm Tree Oasis for 2 days. Donna ** is the Rent Now Owner. 9520 Seawall Blvd Condo # 213 Galveston TX 77554. Checked in turned on the Airconditioner and it made knocking noise. The sliding glass door would not lock to the balcony. Called to the number the host gave for issues, and they and they were apologetic for the problems, but no solution.

      Could not sleep. No one helped, so we went home the following day. Airbnb were of no help when we send videos of the problems. They just kept passing me on to one after another so called Ambassador then finally said we are not entitled to a refund. Terrible service. All our friends and contacts will certainly not use airbnb ever again.

      Good: Airbnb is easy to book, lots of choices, fairly streamlined.

      Bad: 100% host advocate. Despite us providing photos of 10 bedbug, host alleging to have fumigated, Airbnb refusing to provide us proof of fumigation AND host cancelling reservation so that we couldn’t leave a negative review, Airbnb still sided with the host. Why? Because Airbnb will make far more $ siding with the host whom rents their unit 300+ days/yr vs a guest whom may only book 2 weeks out of the year. Will absolutely utilize alternative sites in the future.

      Imagine going to work for 3 months, having a Airbnb and out of blue, hearing from your host that the house will be on sale. I am a healthcare worker (Physical therapist) working on a remote contract in a rural area. I was told by airbnb team that I should leave the house due to safety issues (Imagine having showings every day and strange people walking into my "private" room). After leaving as recommended by Airbnb staff, I requested a refund. Also a price difference from the new airbnb (was 3 times the price of the new one). Was informed that I will get everything back and got nothing. Never booking with this company again. They are evils.

      We booked this Airbnb (Home in Oklahoma City Hosted by Toshi Stay) on June 19. Unfortunately, our stay was negatively affected when one couple in our group was bitten by what appeared to be bed bugs. We immediately documented the situation with photos and a video and sent everything to the property's contact person on June 20. We also requested a refund.

      After we returned home, we were repeatedly asked to provide additional photos because we were told the original images were not clear enough. Since we were no longer at the property, it was impossible to take more pictures. For more than a week, we continued to receive the same questions, such as asking for additional photos and where the bugs were located, despite having already provided the information we had while we were there.

      The handling of this situation was frustrating and unprofessional. Instead of addressing our concerns promptly, we felt we were given the runaround after leaving the property. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend staying here. I encourage future guests to carefully inspect the property and consider our experience before booking.

      Don't use Airbnb. Don't use Airbnb. Their support process is absolutely ridiculous. I rented a home in Orlando for 5 nights for my grandsons with game rooms and near Disney. First night found live bugs in 2 Beds. All kinds of hair all over the 3 other beds. Boogers everywhere. Water heaters painted as if they are games in the games where my grandson almost opened the release valve. The electrical panel was inside a kid television room, and the panel would not lock. My 2-year-old grandson was able to open it and almost started messing with the panel. I have dealt with 7 different people in Airbnb and their communication is horrible. They don't care what you deal with. I'm still waiting for someone to get a hold of me. Stay away from Airbnb and Floridafunproperties...
