After nearly 6 weeks of Airbnb runaround they responded with the text below. I provided them with before and after videos and pictures, invoices from .maintenance companies, original receipts and replacement receipts, and an inventory and cleaning service statements. the guests left 40 bags of trash inside the house and never said anything which is against house rules and Airbnb’s own policy. Had to hire 3 trash removal services to clean it up and apparently none of this is good enough for Airbnb. They also removed outdoor surveillance cameras and threw a party another violation of Airbnb’s own policy that is apparently just not enforced.
