An Airbnb host in Goa has shared a video on social media, which left people shocked. In the video, he showed in what condition the guests who stayed in his 2BHK apartment for four days left the house. Through this video, he not only expressed his problems but also appealed to all the travelers that when they stay in a rented house or homestay, they should take care of it like their own. It is clearly visible in the video that filth is spread in the entire house. There are pieces of food scattered on the floor, dirty used utensils left on the dining table and empty food packets scattered in every room.
Looking at the condition of the house, it seemed as if cleaning had not been done for many days. The host also revealed that before recording the video, his cleaning staff had already thrown away several empty beer bottles. If she had also been there then the condition of the house would have looked even worse. In the video, the host said that this message is especially for those who are planning to stay in Airbnb or any homestay while visiting Goa. He said that today the guests have checked out from my 2BHK apartment and you can see for yourself what a mess they have done to the house.” He told that before the arrival of every new guest, the entire house is thoroughly cleaned. Not only this, guests are also told in advance to leave the kitchen especially clean while leaving. Despite this, these guests did not follow any instructions.
What did people say after watching this video?
According to the host, the house was also cleaned once during these four days so that the guests do not face any kind of problem. But he was quite disappointed to see the condition of the house at the time of checkout. He said that the entire apartment looked like a garbage dump. When she talked to the guests about this, she was even more surprised to hear their response. The host claims the guests said, “It’s a little dirty, what’s the big deal?” This answer hurt him a lot because according to him, after staying in someone’s house, it is at least the responsibility of every person to leave that house with respect.
At the end of the video he made a direct and urgent appeal to all the passengers. He said that whenever you stay in a rented house, homestay or Airbnb, do not leave it dirty. It is not just a room, but a house associated with one’s hard work and responsibility. If every passenger takes a little care then such disputes can be easily avoided.
Along with this video, he also wrote a caption on Instagram. In it he said that this experience is not just his, but many hosts associated with Airbnb face such problems. He wrote that if a host asks the guests to clean or follow the rules, then many times people start calling him ill-mannered. He also wrote that the people of Goa are often described as having rude behavior without any reason, whereas many times the problem arises from the behavior of the guests.
After the video went viral, a large number of people gave their opinion on it. Many users supported the host and said that strict action should be taken against such guests. Some people suggested that such people be given bad reviews on Airbnb so that in future other hosts can be alert and not accept their booking if necessary. Some people suggested that hosts should charge cleaning fees in advance. He said that if a guest leaves the house dirtier than necessary, he should be charged extra cleaning costs. With this, people will behave responsibly and learn to respect the property of others.
