![]() Well, that and pushing us to cancel (she would receive full payment if we canceled). She says “Third person 30 a day, you need to pay me 150”.Īnd that’s basically all she says for 6 hours. We ask for check in information and if we could have a few additional towels for our stay (listing reads one towel per stay per person). We say, it’s OK, we’ve made other arrangements, please cancel. We go to cancel and she says “No worries, you can stay and I won’t charge for the third person”. We ask if we can get Airbnb to waive her fine, will she accept the cancellation, she says “yes”. She demands money and says she will get a fine from Airbnb. She replied “Third person 30 a day, you need to pay me 150” ($200 USD). She asked “how many guests”, we replied “three”. Soon after we booked, we got a confirmation from the Airbnb host. We skipped the nice hotel in replacement of a responsible adult who wanted to save a few bucks, and have clean clothes. He found an Airbnb listing with a washing machine, and we were running low on clothes, so it was a quick sell to me. In a panic, Joey and I got to work looking up last minute availability on all our usual sites. When pulling up the hotel information on our “to Paris” leg, I realized I never actually booked the room. It was a short trip, but we only had one thing we really wanted to see, so we figure we would dawdle, catch up on work, and enjoy the sights with no pressure. For twenty years we have tried to make it to Paris, and finally we had some time before our scheduled trip to London, so we snagged it. A train down to Lisbon, then overnight to Hendaye and then finally to Paris. Getting from Porto to Paris is no easy feat.
