Former guest (from 2 years ago) Sends nasty Airbnb email TODAY

Also, I hate to sound ignorant, but based on comments it seems y’all can see each other’s listings but how? I found this one by searching the listing name in the screenshot provided.

No, we can’t see each other’s listings unless it’s shared here publicly. Some members also share their listings with other members privately. The general rule is that you don’t post another member’s listing or give identifying information about it that they haven’t already made public. Some of us have been posting here for years and are also friendly with one another off the forum. I’ve stayed in 5 listings of people I got to know from the forum.

In addition to the screenshot shadowmnt posted above, she’s posted her listing here in the past, as have a number of other members. Most regulars will share their listing privately if you ask but might not want it on the public part of the forum since that’s literally available for anyone on the internet to see.

@aelilya

I clicked her profile pic, will try again; expected it to take me to her profile.

Yes it should have taken you to her profile.

Only thing that makes sense is she just tried to book another Airbnb and was declined or cancelled when the host saw your review of her.

Or she’s doing a project where she contacts everyone who she feels ever did her wrong and gives them s**t. Sort of the reverse of when people are in AA or other therapy and make amends to everyone they’ve done wrong

That is a bad review. I going to assume she was turned down by a host and blames you. And, like @jaquo said, alcohol could be involved. A case of Whiskey Fingers.

@shadowmnt

Here it is: "Shannon and family were not a good fit for my cabin and I wouldn’t recommend them to hosts with rentals similar to mine. In 2 nights they generated 4 bags of garbage plus additional refuse left outside and on the floor inside. None of it was placed in the proper receptacle as requested. The poorly washed dishes were not put away and copious amounts of garbage inside attract insects. They also violated rules about unaccompanied visits to the livestock barn and ignored other instructions . 2 of 5 stars in all categories. "

Agree. That review would def make me think twice about hosting them, likely a host turned them down or called them out for it and they were pissed.

I agree with everyone else that the review that you left her is a bad review. I would not host her because of it. And this woman contacted you 2 years later to call you a liar. I don’t want to deal with people like that. So, yes, you gave her a bad review. And I want to thank you for giving her a bad review. And whoever just declined her because of the bad review also thanks you.

@JJD

And whoever just declined her because of the bad review also thanks you.

And I also thank whomever declined her due to the bad review.

[CatskillsGrrl]

She only has one review - from you - so she really is dogged on Airbnb. But I applaud your honest review. You did the right thing.

[shadowmnt]

Thanks ya’ll…Sometimes it’s hard to write stuff like that, at least for me. But I know I would appreciate it from someone else. And I’ve committed to always stick to that. Luckily no guests like her have turned up since.
I think you all are right, she got turned down recently and probably the reason was given was because of her one and only review, so she turned on me for blame.
I doubt anything else is behind it. Just a maladjusted human…

Don’t respond to trash like this.

Only hit dogs holler

Cars, phones, & email should come with a breathalyzer key for access. Over the limit-no access.

Also too, she left a negative review for you. Some hosts routinely drill down & seek those out. Yet another reason a host may decline her.

Which is exactly why I don’t post here during the evening.

Could that message have been hung up in Airbnb’s message system and was actually sent 2 years ago? Maybe something happened and the system just released the message to you.

@shadowmnt

like this is capable of considering after two years I am still on her mind??? Am not being paranoid, as I am a lifelong farm girl who doesn’t get overly concerned about much, but nothing would surprise me anymore.

Sounds very strange actually. She can still get hot under the collar after two years ? I don’t even remember what I was doing two years ago, unless facebook reminds me ha ha. It’s quite scary that you can attract this sort of ire just for hosting.
