Looking for long term stays on airbnb is an absolute minefield.
Yeah the owner should be forced to pay to put you up in a hotel of your choice if they optionally choose to cancel on short notice.
> I'm a power user of Airbnb. I have never disliked a service as much that I pay continue to pay for other than LinkedIn
As someone who has more or less been living out of Airbnbs for 5 years as as digital nomad I couldn't agree more. There is however a secret code language for talking to there support where you can generally get them to treat you fairly by being very selective in the language you use to describe situations to make sure you never fall outside the boundries of their insane policies.
- anitil 5y ago> living out of Airbnbs for 5 years as as digital nomad Don't you find this stressful? Or are you just used to living with a bit of uncertainty?
- anm89 5y agoYeah traveling is great but this isn't a good way to live. It has been detrimental to my mental health
- AlwaysRock 5y agoI need a crash course in this language. I was mostly hit with empty promises and brick walls when I would ask them to deliver.
- anm89 5y agoTreat it as a court case, don't say any more than you have to and make the strongest case possible in every scenario. They are playing the same game on the other end so if you aren't very careful with your words and what you are arguing you will not get the outcomes you want.
