I rent two studios in Paris. And I always decline requests coming from people that come from my country or neighboring ones (Tunisia, Morroco) unless they have stellar reviews. That includes people who were born in France but have ancestry from those countries (which is pretty easy to guess).
That's because a) past history w. poor experiences b) I know too well they become overconfident when they see you are from there too c) generally speaking, they left my property in pretty bad state, with stuff that are broken or very dirty.
Oh and they always ask you if you do the ramadan and stuff like that. I will continue to do so and Airbnb has no way to prevent me from doing that.
- zeroer 10y agoI'm totally ignorant. What does "do the ramadan" entail for you? Can you just continue to refuse to rent to Tunisians and Moroccans? Does AirBnB have any way to detect that? Does AirBnB have recourse against guests who leave the apartment trashed? Insurance, etc.? I wouldn't rent to people who would trash my place, either.

And best case they look at you funny and take a moralistic tone about your haram behavior and worst case, well there is a lot of different worst case scenario when it comes to those folks. I don't want them to leave me a bad review because they are bitter about my "haram" behavior >Does AirBnB have recourse against guests who leave the apartment trashed? They do but I would rather not go through that, plus it is a hassle and I don't want to invest more time than I already do >Does AirBnB have any way to detect that? I don't know... but Paris is Paris. AirBnb is convenient but I won't have trouble finding an alternative if I have to
