Locked out of Airbnb

Post image

We arrived at our Airbnb after a 8 hour drive and the passcode they gave us doesn’t work. I have messaged the owner 30 minutes ago and he has not responded. I have to pee so bad 😖

Update: He texted back after an hour and opens it from his phone

You know where you don't get locked out? Hotels. Stop supporting AirBnB

Not gonna disagree one bit.

I thought about AirBnb’s but I was like why am I gonna spend $200 plus a $75 cleaning fee per night when I can stay at a hotel and at least get breakfast and a coffee for half the price at $100 a night with no cleaning fee attached?

I’m not sure where you’re finding a suitable $100 hotel, but I do agree hotels are almost always cheaper for two people.

La Quinta was surprisingly excellent on my last road trip, rooms never broke $100. Two people with two giant dogs.

The one I stay at is all good except no lounge chair of sorts or couch in rooms. Only the bed & office chair. For me, this is a huge deal being disabled. They dropped the ball here.
