The Story:
\nI discovered a hidden camera in our Airbnb bedroom. It was midnight. My husband quickly covered it with a towel, and we went to sleep.<\/p>\n
At 2 a.m., the door burst open. The Airbnb owner stormed in, furious, screaming, \u201cYou idiots, this is a camera to see the outside! Why have you covered it?\u201d<\/p>\n
It turned out the camera was aimed at the street, not the bedroom. The owner, paranoid from a string of thefts in the neighborhood\u2014including the theft of his car\u2014had installed it to watch for trouble. He admitted to monitoring the footage obsessively.<\/p>\n
We left first thing in the morning, feeling shaken and uncomfortable. Despite his explanation, breaking into our room in the middle of the night crossed every boundary. We left an honest review, warning future guests about the intrusion.<\/p>\n
Later, as we read through other reviews, we realized this wasn\u2019t an isolated incident. Other guests had experienced his outbursts and obsession with security. While we could understand his paranoia, it didn\u2019t excuse the violation of our privacy or the bizarre behavior. It was an experience we wouldn\u2019t forget, and one we wouldn\u2019t want anyone else to endure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
