Anyway the image (in every shot) on the TV really bothers me. As a result I didn’t book.
Would you message him and say so or just let him deal with the obvious consequences. I find it weird someone so stupid would have ‘no parties’ as a house rule when it seems this is exactly the clientele it would attract.
Am I being too prudish?
I had a potential guest with profile picture of him with a gun. I declined his request. No I didnt feel obligated to tell him. I appreciate the insight into people/homes and don’t want them to change it. It just lets me know.
peculiar choice for a pic…someone must have told him sex sells. Bit cringe, espesh in this months moral climate
No! I find it very inappropriate.I wouldn’t message him though. Let him kill his own business.
I wish my surrounding hosts would advertise as badly! 
Not for me, but depends who his target market is!
This could pair really well with a porn couch, studio lighting, complimentary bowl of condoms and check-in time of 9pm, check-out time of midnight. 
The photo doesn’t bother me in terms of reporting it or saying anything to him. I wouldn’t book the place though. He is either trying to attract a certain kind of guest (Presidents and movie producers come to mind) or is clueless.
I wouldn’t book with him. The fact that he chose that to be on the tv out of all the channels gives me the impression he might be a clueless host in other aspects of my stay.
As a single female traveling by myself I would not book this place.
I would let ABB know. I dont think they will want this to stay up on the site.
It’s weird! I wouldn’t book, knowing what he’s probably been up to on that couch. And it’s just strange that someone thinks we all want to know what he’s watching on tv. It’s similar to when you see photos of bathrooms and the toilet seat is up
It is inappropriate. I would report.
I am with you on this. This sends out a signal that I don’t want to receive. Some times people are clueless, but this seems very much in your face. Think I would tell him why I was not booking, but that is just me. I also tell mangers when their bathrooms are dirty.
Good to connect with like-minded folks–Thanks, Judy Helm Wright–Author/Blogger/Intuitive Wise Woman
good point actually, he’s not just losing out on bookings, he’s kinda bringing Airb down
Talk about bringing Airbnb’s reputation down; I just saw these two stories;
Do you think I should start out with a message to Airbnb ‘hi I hope you are having an amazing day, as a Supehost I wanted to reach out to you…’
The Airbnb murder is in my city, it’s in a very fancy suburb, Poole are making the joke (murder is not funny obviously) that East Brighton is now the ‘most dangerous part of town’ because people from that suburb are notorious as being super snobby.
ACK!!! No. Not the reach out phrase!
@Emily Each listing on Airbnb has a REPORT THIS LISTING button on it. You need to use that. It is at the very bottom of the listing, under the map.
I find this very offensive. I’d report it to airbnb. If I knew the ad is do it myself.feel free to pm me.
