“SCAM WARNING – DO NOT BOOK! MISLEADING LISTING – LOST OVER $2,000! DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY”
🚨**SCAM WARNING – DO NOT BOOK! MISLEADING LISTING – LOST OVER $2,000! 🚨** DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. PRIVATE APARTMENT DOES NOT EXIST** Just **TWO DAYS before my scheduled arrival, the host informed me that 'IT WAS NOT A PRIVATE APARTMENT' and that I would actually be sharing a **STUDIO with the host, his partner, their baby and a dog**. This included sharing the bathroom, kitchen and living space, with their living area immediately beside my bed. This was completely different from the accommodation advertised, booked and paid for. This is a deliberate attempt to mislead guests into paying for accommodation they would never knowingly agree to, only to reveal the true arrangements shortly before arrival. The host ignored communications from both myself and . I have lost over $2,000 and have still not received a refund. I have formally reported this listing to , providing extensive evidence of the misleading advertisement and the host's own written admissions. **PREVIOUS GUESTS HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR EXPERIENCES.** If you look back through the older reviews, you will find other guests describing similar experiences. I have attached screenshots of these reviews so prospective guests can see the warnings for themselves. **FAKE POSITIVE REVIEWS** I was fooled by this listing due to the numerous recent 10/10 reviews, which have manipulated the algorithms inflated the property's overall rating and pushed earlier negative reviews further out of sight,. Many of these glowing reviews are unusually lengthy, despite being associated with **single-night stays**. You have to open each individual review to discover that the guest supposedly stayed for just 1 x night. This experience has caused me enormous stress, distress and financial loss. What was supposed to be an enjoyable stay in Paris became an extremely upsetting ordeal. 🚨**SCAM WARNING – DO NOT BOOK!
