Taking a step away and objectively evaluating the situation it makes sense that yes, this stay was during the holiday and as the host reported, the usual "help" was a way and processes were not performed as usual. Given that myself, my 67-year-old mother and 20 month old baby were the only guests and that we reported all the damages that were not addressed prior to our stay, why would we then be deemed accountable for smoking within the premises??? We reported the broken bathroom door handle, the missing garage door opener, the bags of trash left in the front of the house, the window left wide open (which is against policy). All of these things the owner knew nothing about prior to our reporting which is why it occurred to us that there was no "follow up" after the last guest. It was later confirmed by the host that there was no follow up done after the previous guest and why these damages were unaccounted for. Having been targeted by the assumption and accusation that the smoking was done by us was appalling and nevertheless, has left negative feelings. As if the previous damages would then become ours???The apology left by the host fell short, too little too late. Hopefully this helps and detours other professionals who are respectful and courteous from being falsely accused/reduced to less than so....simply unacceptable.
