"I don't feel free to leave a bad review because the next landlord might not rent to me if they see I've left other bad reviews".
A hack to deal with this: leave praise in the review, but end it with 'and I'll be sure to tell all my friends'.
That used to be code in hotel guestbooks that all the preceding praise should be inverted. (I think that's the codephrase - someone correct me if it's wrong please!) Not sure if it's used in AirBnb, but hey, why not start the tradition now...
- pavel_lishin 11y agoI've never heard of this before; I don't know how many hosts would pick up on it. Also, I think I've left that comment before in various places, and I certainly didn't intend it to mean that I hated it.

- knughit 11y agoThat's s horrible spoilage of communication, and makes no sense in a hotel guest book. i think someone played a joke on you.
