Just wanted to vent!
I've never used AirBNB before but I travel for work sometimes and my dog comes with me. We usually stay in a Travelodge but thought I'd look at AirBNB for a change. Found one that says it accepts pets and I messaged them to make sure that dogs are allowed. Had a message back saying yes but what breed of dog as they have a young daughter, said a Staffie Cross, gave some background on him and that his only unpredictable trait is with cats and he's amazing with kids.
Got a terse message back saying that Staffies are the one breed they will not allow around their daughter and that they have three cats.
No mention of cats on their listing!
I am highly allergic to cats and have an asthma attack severe enough to require hospitalisation within 30 minutes if I'm in a house with one cat, let alone three. That's even after taking anti histamines and having inahlers and relievers.
Okay about not liking Staffies, fair enough (I do know of a friend who had to have their Shih Zhu put down because it bit a child but hey...), but why would you not mention the CATS????
It's a common and severe allergy - why on earth would they not mention that on their listing??
Has anyone else had any luck or problems with AirBNB with a dog or have any recommendations? Or other hotel chains to look for? I'm on a budget so can't afford £££s!
