  (#11) The Party Pooper

  Rachel Bassini had one hell of a AirBNB horror story to tell after she came home to her NYC East Village apartment to find it completely trashed. But not just "trashed" in the after-party kind of way that involves empty solo cups and beer bottles – "Trashed" in the way that includes condoms and human feces covering her bathroom and furniture. Fortunately, AirBNB paid for the damages.

  (#12) The Poser

  Sometimes the guests aren't always to blame. One person had an AirBNB horror story come to life while they were staying at a Berlin rental. There was a knock on the door, and when the renter opened it, the REAL owner of the apartment was standing there, with the paperwork to prove it his ownership. Talk about awkward. But, at least he let the renter stay out the remainder of this trip.

  (#3) The Nosy Neighbor

  And you thought your neighbors were uptight. Musician STEFisDOPE and his friends got quite a surprise after settling in to their Decatur, GA Airbnb rental. STEFisDOPE, along with musicians Xali, Willie Howard, and two other men were greeted by police officers after a nosey neighbor spotted them and thought they were robbing the place. According to Xali, cops showed up, "guns out," to confront the perfectly legal renters. They eventually left them alone when they realized the mistake. The neighbor, however, wasn't as accommodating. He apparently came over to the house later and opened the door without knocking.

  (#9) The Stabbing

  Having prostitutes rent your home is bad enough. But what better way to make this terrible AirBNB experience even worse than by having one of those prostitutes stabbed in your apartment? This was the case for Jessica Penzari when she rented her West 43rd Street apartment turned-brothel to a woman who told her that she was in the Army and needed a place to stay before deployment. While she was gone, a hooker was stabbed by a client, and Penzari returned home to find baby wipes and condoms left behind.

  (#2) The Sneaky Adult Film Director

  An Airbnb owner in Ojai, California sued the company in 2015, alleging that renters had used her mansion to film an unauthorized gay adult movie. Kristina Knapic claimed she thought she was renting her property to a group of friends, but when she found enema kits, various sexual devices, and stains on the linens and carpets, she knew something was up.

  Knapic used a business card she discovered among the wreckage to track down the director, Michael Lucas (real name Andrei Treivas), who had even posted on Facebook that he was shooting "on location" at the home. Knapic's suit asked for compensation for property damage, emotional damages, and breach of contract
