Airbnb wouldn’t confirm a reservation for a guy and the note stated that they were waiting for identity verification while his profile said verified. AIrbnb actual cancelled him. He was mystified and I certainly couldn’t explain it. He was not a repeat so I wasn’t comfortable booking direct. If any Airbnb process requires staff interaction, I think they all execute the rules a little differently. This may not answer your question, but it should make your wary of the Airbnb screening process.
