Hi @konacoconutz,
I’ve now taken to giving guest a little lecture about how anything under 5 stars is bad for the host. Something like - 4 stars means significant problems, 3 stars means really bad, 2 stars means a hellhole.
(I don’t usually mention 1 stars, but I suppose, based on the rest of this ranking, it would be the Bates Motel. So, if someone murders you in the shower in your Airbnb, you’re justified in leaving a 1 star review. No, I don’t mention this bit to the guests.)
For good measure, I also say something like - “a couple of people on this Airbnb forum I frequent reported that they were threatened with termination by Airbnb because they had an average of 4.2 stars.” Based on that recent thread. If anyone has the link to that thread, please post it.
Anyway, I don’t know if any guests would actually listen to any of this, but I figure it does not hurt to say it.
