I have stayed all over the world in hotels and non-AirBnB rentals, and never before been falsely accused of damages, and extorted for money. I know not all hosts are like this, but you are dealing with an unknown character when you book on AirBnB, because of a hugely inflated and flawed rating system, and it isn’t worth the financial risk and aggravation. If you have a dispute with the host, you CANNOT REFER TO THE DISPUTE IN YOUR REVIEW! I just discovered this; it’s in their review rules. So the upshot is, if there is a real that ends up in the dispute resolution center, it NEVER makes it to the reviews! How inherently skewed and dishonest is that??

I also note that not one of the legitimate issues with the rental is mentioned by any other reviewer. People gush because they want positive reviews for themselves. Never again. It’s back to hotels and reputable rental agencies when I travel.
