Sounds a lot like victim blaming to me. He only found those reviews after he went looking if people had similar experiences. My assumption is that those negative reviews didn't stand out on AirBnB itself, and thus he made the choice of renting the property.
And like he said in the post, we wasn't even able to leave a review, so it seems like many people with negative reviews were in the same scenario.
- IncRnd 4y agoIt's not victim blaming. Each side is responsible for their own behaviours. The host is responsible for how they acted, but the renter is responsible for not checking reviews prior to renting. This became obvious to the renter who authored this blog, though they only learned that in retrospect.
