This has happened to me, earlier this year. Luckily it was just for one night and the room was low cost anyway (£35 for central London!) so should have seen this coming. Oddly enough, there was someone living in the switcheroo apartment I ended up in and they were paying £800 a month! I reported it to airbnb today after reading this story and checking that listing's reviews, almost all of whom had reported the same problem and airbnb have come back to say they've cancelled the host's account and listing.
