There is NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. I’ve read several times that the founders/owners of Airbnb never saw reason to provide this because “the rating system would work it out” or some such ridiculousness. But that’s the reality. My only request from Airbnb: be completely upfront with hosts & guests: “This is all at your own risk. No one is here to mediate, rectify or do anything more than answer a call and waste hours of your time.”
It’s a crapshoot. I’ve had good luck and bad with Airbnb and didn’t bother to call after they wasted hours of my time and then told me to stuff it (not in so many words but you get the idea) after a guest caused my neighbors to alert me to massive noise and probable drug activity.
