Comments on: Airbnb Theft in Safe Neighbourhood https://www.airbnbhell.com/airbnb-theft-safe-neighbourhood/ Uncensored Airbnb Stories from Hosts & Guests Tue, 23 Aug 2016 05:20:12 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Abbas https://www.airbnbhell.com/airbnb-theft-safe-neighbourhood/comment-page-1/#comment-11020 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 05:20:12 +0000 http://www.airbnbhell.com/airbnb-nightmare-at-barcelona/#comment-11020 I’m so sorry to hear this..the EXACT same thing happened to us in Pasadena, California around the same time in July 2016. My employer was shipping everything except the valuable things that we had brought with us worth more than 20,000 USD. We go out for 45 min, come back, door in open and everything is stolen. Nothing is touched from Airbnb furnishings. Funny thing is the camera system was BEING serviced during the exact same 45 min! turns out previous tenant never returned the key and the airbnb host failed to have the lock changed. However, no one is taking responsibility. We are going to sue the people whose negligence caused this. Do you happen to know others who fell for this like that and would be willing to share their story with the media? someone has to take action.

Actually, if you were staying in a hotel and this happened it would be a serious problem and the hotel would probably help you contact a police report. I’m not sure what you expect people to do. Carry all their stuff around? Ship it as soon as they buy it so it can sit outside their empty house? Get a safe deposit box for a week, which you probably can’t do anyway? What’s your solution here? People often travel with valuable electronics. If there were a couple of laptops in the apartment, they could be worth about a grand each. A lot of people travel with laptops and leave them in their hotel rooms or rented apartments.

No matter where you travel and what you buy, your place of stay should always be secure.
I’ve read about a case where someone broke into a hotel room because the windows weren’t secure, and if I’m not mistaken the travel agency had to be responsible for it in the end.
I would definitely try consulting legal advice on this case.

Leaving valuables amounting to €7000 in any property is plain stupid – probably so stupid a thing to do that your travel insurance won’t cover it.
