While many safety measures are put in place when it comes to staying overnight at an Airbnb, what happens after that can be quite questionable.
A woman was spending a few nights in Vancouver and needed a place to stay. Instead of booking a hotel, Dr. Alex Moore chose to find the perfect place using the Airbnb website.
Little did she know, her experience would be less than ideal.
Dr. Moore had a pleasant stay in her Vancouver rental. However, come time for check-out, she decided to leave a review.
While she enjoyed her time at the rental property and would consider staying again in the future, Dr. Alex Moore chose to rate her stay as a 4/5.
Who would have thought that a 4/5 and a positive message would send her world into instant chaos?
After submitting her thoughts and concerns, Dr. Moore was contacted by the Airbnb host, who chose violence over a healthy discussion.
Her text messages from the host read, "I have your picture, name, and number. You have 48 hours to remove your review, or I'm hiring a private investigator to obtain your address, and then the fun begins. You're blocked from messaging me at this number."
Scared for her life, Dr. Alex Moore spends the next few days in panic mode as she reaches out to Vancouver Police Department and Airbnb in an attempt to remove this listing from their site to hopefully save others from experiencing the same situation.
After a few days, the support team at Airbnb responds. Due to safety measures and protocols, the company decided to remove the listing from its site.
In addition, they will also be in contact with the Vancouver Police Department and the officer in contact as they continue to investigate the situation.
As Dr. Moore has leaned on Twitter to vent her frustration, her post has gone viral, leaving plenty of people with opinions in the comment section.
Here is the top burning question the viewers need answered; Why would you rate someone any less than 5 stars if you had a pleasant stay and would return to the rental property if necessary?
