Host is excellent communicator, home just as described.
Staying in Seattle.
The issue? The walking, zombie apocalypse of drug addicts, activity, homelessness. If you’ve been to LA/San Francisco you know.
I’ve lived in ATL & DC and live in Fla. we see this daily. But here in Seattle, this area? I would NOT have stayed here if someone had mentioned unwalkable due to 100+ walking dead.

How to word the review so that travelers unaccustomed to this would flip out and demand refunds.

I’m a host in Blue Ridge, so I’m aware of the reviews

Are the Pendleton outlets worth the drive from Seattle to Portland? Visiting my kids in Seattle. Thanks in advance

Saw a couple from India walking down the aisle with a toddler. Please keep walking. Flight had been delayed out of Atlanta 3X. Only an hour flight to Destin, I can tolerate a toddler. Father sat down 2 aisle up, immediate relief, she sat down and plunked toddler into a seat. When rightful seat owner shows up, mom asks if she’d like to sit in her hubby’s aisle seat 2 rows up? I’m groaning internally, please, PLEASE no.

Sure enough, they switch. Before he even sat down, the BODY ODOR was so bad, everyone’s eyes and noses were watering. I stated WHAT is that SMELL and lifted my armpits and did a sniff test. EVERYONE knew!
He sat down, I pulled out my coat, Kleenex, and hand sanitizer and started spraying around me.
Of course we were delayed on the tarmac another hour. We’re all gagging, finally I looked directly at him and said-do you SMELL that???
He was nonchalant about it, we all kept spraying. The moment he stood up again, armpits exposed, 2 of us were on the verge of throwing up.
When we saw that they were going to change that toddler in the seat, I just stood up and said oh Hell2theNO and pushed the flight button. Her eyes were watering as she stood and so NO, YOU MUST CHANGE in the bathroom! Delta mandates that it’s a biohazard issue. I said air deodorizer spray please. She promptly came back, sprayed 3 rows behind up, liberally sprayed 3 rows ahead too. I said may I borrow that and doused my seat, armrests and seat back in front of me. She then came and handed him a bag of coffee and said out this in front of you. Came back with coffee bags for all too. I was pissed. Sitting there, I was over it. I finally looked at him and said Deodorant. PLane ith 30+ people on board, YOU must wear deodorant.
What should’ve been a 1.2 hour flight from gate to landing was 4.2 hours.
As soon as it landed, another 35 minute wait because gate wasn’t ready. We were all DONE.
As soon as we could, we unbuckled and tried to move backwards from the stench. I threw the coffee bag into his lap, leaned over and hissed deodorant. You CANNOT fly without it. Toddler 100% fine with, YOU? 🤢🤮💩. DRIVE your CAR next time or wear deodorant. I even showed him pictures that I pulled up of deodorant.

Then a Covid flake yogi twit sitting behind us said loudly, don’t you understand different culturals? Why would you say that to him? I whipped around, looked at her, said LOOK at ME? Want to discuss culture? I’m Native American! I said put your lips together, OPEN your eyes next time before you speak. Cultural differences aside. When you get on a plane, and flight attendant is almost dousing you in biohazard spray-you stink. I stated it’s called being respectful of the other passenger on this plane.
He tried to get someone to switch with him and everyone said not sitting by you.
🙄 saw her in the bathroom and she started with Indian culture. i told her, we had NOT flown on India airlines in India. If your body odor is causing 3/4 of the plane to react, it’s not culture. THINK before you speak ever again, if that’s possible. Their UBER driver wouldn’t let them in the car, he smelled so bad. Felt vindicated by that.
Why do these people, it’s happened in the past and they’re escorted off, giving wipes and if they’ve got on a new change of clothing they were allowed t embark again. Do Indians not USE deodorant?

It’ll be another 20+ years before I’ll sit in the vicinity of that again.

Supposedly a host themselves booked for 1 person. 8+ people and “service animals”, then requested to stay another day. We stated the obvious and said 10 for cleaning crew to turn around.
Checked the cameras. 7+ people, 2 animals, excessive filth and did NOT leave the premises until 1:27pm. This was time stamped and evidenced by cleaning team.
We’re waiting on the review but I want to charge for 2 dogs, the 7+ extra people, late checkout and excessive filth.
