I made a reservation through Airbnb while on the road and arrived at the property within two hours of booking. The listing’s photos and the details provided by the host were completely misleading. When we arrived, the actual condition and location of the property were nothing like what was shown online. Even the photo the host sent of the door was different from the entrance we found in person — this alone shows how misleading the listing was.
We immediately contacted the host to explain the issue and requested a cancellation and full refund, but they refused to cancel or return the payment. We then turned to Airbnb’s Resolution Center, hoping they would help — but they were completely unresponsive and unhelpful.
This situation left us stranded and forced to look for another place to stay last-minute. The inaccurate listing information caused real harm, and the host’s dishonesty was backed by Airbnb’s inaction. Allowing hosts to mislead guests and ignoring valid complaints like ours undermines trust in the platform.
We are requesting a full refund of the ₺ amount we paid, as we were misled and did not receive the service promised. Airbnb must stop allowing false listings to remain active and start protecting travelers who are trying to book in good faith.

I didn’t even check in, yet Airbnb refuses to issue a refund, claiming it’s up to the host to approve it. Unsurprisingly, the host is unwilling to provide the refund. This is incredi...

However, upon arrival, we were shocked to find that the room only had one single bed—completely different from what was advertised. Since the room was not as described, we immediately tried t...
We booked a hotel room in Cambodia through Airbnb, but when we arrived in the city, we spent over 2 hours in a taxi searching for the place—and it was nowhere to be found. The address provided was completely fake, and at this point, we’re convinced the hotel doesn’t even exist. We immediately repor...
I had an awful experience with an Airbnb rental that was completely misrepresented. The listing showed a comfortable and functional home, but the reality was far from it. I contacted the host a week in advance to confirm that everything was in order, and they assured me there were no issues. However...
