I went away to the Catskills for the weekend with some buddies. We rented this awesome cabin off AirBnb in the middle of the woods with no neighbors and a private pool and grill. We get there and can't get in. After four hours on the phone with AirBnb, it turns out that they canceled the reservation (That we made a month ago) that day and never told us.

We ended up in a farmhouse like thirty minutes from there that was also pretty great but no pool. At least I got to drink a lot.
One of my favorite places. Those are some of the most Hallowed waters in American Fly fishing . Theodore Gordon - Wikipedia

Recently binged Dead To Me. Have two more episodes left because I suggested it to my wife so I had to rewatch the first two episodes. Fantastic show.

I'd watch this if it was 3 hours & 43 minutes long, let alone 3 minutes & 43 seconds long.


A)That looked nothing like George Washington.

B)Do they not know what the American flag looks like?

C)That was awesome.

Didn't know there was much of battle, the Hessians actually got some canon fire off?

D)The Hessians should have been drunk.

Although I did not know, I figured, I was joshing.

that's class, though. good on them.
No offense, but no it isn't.

I'm glad NSP is pleased and had a great vaca anyway, but free + a credit is standard in the hotel industry for a comparable situation.

I am a chronic user of Airbnb, but I'd also start paying the upcharge for proper hotels if I was treated this way.

??????????????????????? ok then :dunno:
You get what you pay for.

Again, I personally have never had a poor experience with Airbnb, but a substandard effort - such as the one described - on their part would have me calling Starwood, rci, whoever, immediately after f'ing with my trip like that.

4 hours, no pool, and a 50% off coupon for a property that wasn't even being rented? That's trash service any way you slice it.

Pay the extra and put them on blast about it.
