I had holiday nightmare when I turned up to Vrbo rental and found room infested with termites
ONE woman’s dream holiday rental turned into a nightmare after she came back to her accommodation to find termites swarming above her bed.
TikTok user Burn Your Dress Pants shared the video on her account and claimed the rental company wouldn’t refund her the full amount.
The video shows a swarm of what appear to be termites near a bedroom chandelier.
She said: “No, I have not gotten a refund yet, and I’ve not heard from the property manager at all.
“It was booked through a Brbo on Vrbo – not Airbnb. No more rental properties for me.”
The experience has put the TikToker off of rental properties for life, and she said from now on she’s a “hotel girlie”.
She continued: “I have a case open with Vrbo and they should be contacting me. If not, I’m going to contact them.
“It’s bulls*** that I have to be so on the ball about trying to get my money back after there’s an infestation in my rental property.”
Users were outraged, with many saying they also only stay in hotels due to situations like hers.
One shocked woman said: “They haven’t refunded you yet?!”
She replied: “Nope, they still say they have to speak to the owner.”
Burn Your Dress Pants provided an update and said she was given a partial refund, but not the full one she was hoping for.
The Sun has contacted Vrbo for comment.
Another couple were left fuming after they made a disgusting discovery in their Airbnb – and all they got was a measly £13 refund.
Chloe and Matt’s mini break in Melbourne, Australia already got off to a bad start when they turned up to find their apartment was filthy.
The pair, from Queensland initially decided to ignore the lack of cleanliness so they could enjoy their romantic getaway.
After checking in on December 30, they began to adjust to living in the apartment and could overlook the uncleanliness.
But the Aussies were left horrified when Matt stepped out of the shower and noticed a peculiar object sitting on a pile of dust.
Upon further inspection of the debris, he realised it actually appeared to be a crack pipe.
Despite the loved-up couple paying a total of £825 for their accommodation, Airbnb said they could only refund them 10 per cent of their first night – which worked out at a pathetic £13.
We previously told how a family of 12 were left stranded on the side of the road when they discovered the Airbnb they booked was a construction site.
