I rented on airbnb during my trip

Because I am on the road, it is inevitable to book an airbnb rental. According to my personal experience, using airbnb has some advantages. For example, it can quickly integrate into the local life. If there is a good landlord living in the airbnb house, basically you are living You can get a lot of help from the landlord, such as borrowing daily necessities from the landlord.

But staying in airbnb also has some disadvantages. First of all, when booking a room, before booking a room, it is best to confirm the conditions you require with the host, otherwise once you make a reservation, the host will press confirm and your credit card will be debited directly, even after If you cancel the reservation again, you can only get a free refund 30 days before check-in, otherwise a full refund cannot be made.

For example, I personally like that the room has an independent bathroom. Originally, I had confirmed with the landlord a week before the reservation, and the landlord also confirmed that there was an independent bathroom. Unexpectedly, when I made a reservation a week later, the landlord said that it must be with other People share the bathroom, but even if I cancel the reservation at this time, I can't get a full refund.

I can only get a full refund if the host cancels the reservation, but the host didn't want to, so I had to take a screenshot of the airbnb house with a separate bathroom and repost it to the official customer service, telling them that the information was wrong, and the official can also Through my previous conversation with the landlord about the independent bathroom, I knew that the landlord had also informed me that there was a separate bathroom. In the end, the official decided to give me a full refund and gave me a $250 coupon.

Therefore, when booking a room on airbnb, it is best to confirm with the landlord that the relevant conditions are correct before booking, otherwise it will be very inconvenient to cancel the reservation later.
