Nice to see Airbnb give you some credit for the hosts cancellation. We had a host cancel on us in Albuquerque due to a 'plumbing issue'. However, we're pretty sure it's because we wouldn't move to their other property, close to the highway, so they could extend for their current guest. Unsurprisingly, the property was back up available in 24-48 hours despite the host saying it would take up to 2 months to fix 🙄

Wow, I have only had that happen once (when lockdown was first announced) but never for a long stay. I did have to leave an airbnb after a day or so because of a boiler failure that couldn't be fixed ... but Airbnb refunded me the difference between that one and the new Airbnb I found (they were useless at that) and I got a small credit as well. Again it wasn't a month stay (I think it was a week) but when you have nowhere else to live it can be a bit scary. Well done on sorting it out and glad that you are now settled. I've been to France several times but never to Lyon and I think it's top of the list for that country, if and when I go back.

Sorry to hear your AirBnB canceled on you like that. Looks like you ended up in a pretty nice (though maybe a bit strange) place in the end. Did AirBnB give you more of a credit than you originally paid for the first place? Like did they subsidize part of the costs your more expensive next place? You mentioned a few costs in the video but I wasn’t sure where it landed. Thanks! Hope you have a great time in Lyon!
@SlowTravelChronicles14 күн бұрын
Airbnb gave me a $123 rebooking credit that I was able to apply to the new Airbnb in Lyon. They also gave me $350 as a credit to be applied to a future booking. So $473 total against my $700 increase in cost from my original Airbnb. I was happy with the resolution. Thanks for watching.

Most Airbnbs we've stayed in have been okay but there are always things that are not quite right. Sometimes it's such a big price difference to stay in an Airbnbs compared to hotels for long stays so we end up staying in them.

Funny how I’m watching this just coming back from this hotel. View is everything we were in the 14th floor oceanfront. But cockroaches 🪳 everywhere. The breakfast sucks for $300 a night stay. The ceilings are super low and narrow hallways and narrow parking garage. Elevators aren’t marked North or South. Will definitely stay closer towards boardwalk if ever we visit again.

Very typical review from a very gringo perspective, ESPECIALLY of the Deliverance variety.

It is not overweight. I think it weighs 23lbs. It is the largest carry-on that meets US standards. Twice in Europe the made us check, that was Ryanair and Lufthansa. Other US and European carriers have had no problem with it. We are trying to call smaller before we head to Asia next year. It will be too big there. Thanks for watching.

cannot see your 'costs' because you have a suggested video plastered right over the video. Doesn't really help since you were using points instead of paying cash.
