I have had a similar situation, but in mine the seller immediately re-listed the property at 4x the price I paid. Airbnb says they can’t do this, but they literally did, on the same account.

I had 3 terrible Airbnb scam experiences in 2022, so I’m never using them again.

(My most hilarious one was that a host with like 25 positive reviews, listing said they had a hot tub and shower on property. It turns out this meant that we could go her sisters house, a 30 minute drive away, and we could ask to use hers. We tried this and she told us to piss off. That was a fun one.)

That's cold. I once had one (managed by a large vacation rental company) where the hot tub was busted. Of course they knew about this prior to our arrival, but instead we had to find out the hard way after an 8 hour drive. Of course they offered us a $50 discount for the week. Somehow my negative review did not stick.
