‘What a disaster…’: Angry Goa homestay owner’s viral video after chaotic guests stay on Airbnb – WATCH

A video showing the aftermath of what the owner of a Goa homestay describes as a chaotic stay has gone viral on social media, sparking debates over guest behavior and respect for the property.

The clip, uploaded by the owner of The Golden Perch, a popular Airbnb rental, shows a scene of mess allegedly left by guests after a single night, with unwashed dishes, milk stains and a messy bedroom.

In a detailed caption accompanying the video, the owner expressed his frustration with the experience, stating, “Enough of paradise. After two years of hosting, we finally encountered some problems. When you try hard and someone destroys it, something dies in you. But we have to get back up and focus on making things better.” The post emphasized the desire for guests to show more consideration, noting, “Running an Airbnb is not so easy on the heart.”

Here is the video:

The video has started conversations about the respect owed to rental properties, with many viewers rallying behind the homestay owner. Some expressed disbelief at the lack of basic courtesy shown by guests, while others defended them, arguing that cleaning fees typically cover the costs associated with cleaning after a stay.

One user commented: “Whoever did this should be publicly named and shamed. People without any basic sense or etiquette should be banned from using these services.”

Another user wrote: “I think the Indians in the comments section don’t understand the concept of Airbnb. The mess is disgusting. You can easily use a trash bag to throw half the stuff on the counter. It’s about being conscious and respectful, which most Indians lack.”

However, some had divided opinions on the incident. Users argued over whether guests should clean utensils after just a one-day stay.

One user commented: “So you suggest that the guest clean the kitchen and utensils? Also, has there been any damage to your furniture? Since I am a sensible traveler, I don’t keep that many utensils or clean ones, but the thing “I mean, If there are a lot of people, the utensils will be like this and the kitchen will be dirty.

Another user supporting this argument wrote: “It’s not even dirty, it’s messy, but there’s nothing broken or anything that hasn’t been cleaned… Guests aren’t supposed to do the cleaning… it’s not your house, It’s yours.” “.

This incident has led to suggestions for clearer rules and guidelines for guests to improve the homestay experience for both hosts and visitors.
