HOST BEWARE!!!!

Joe and Lindsey followed the house rules and left the condo clean, which I appreciated.

Before their arrival, Joe claimed to work for Airbnb and offered professional photography in exchange for a discounted stay. I agreed to the exchange, but the photos delivered were of extremely poor quality and unfortunately not usable for our listing.

When I resectfully provided this feedback, he responded with off-platform threats and falsely claimed to have influence over the status of my listing, even threatening to have it suspended. I contacted Airbnb, who confirmed he is not an employee, as he had claimed.

I reported the incident to Airbnb for misrepresentation and inappropriate conduct.

Hosts should use caution when approached with barter offers from this guest.
