A slew of jaw-dropping AirBnB listings have gone viral in the past. From guests finding hidden cameras in their bathrooms and even stumbling upon secret tunnels in their vacation spot, there\u2019s seemingly no end to the outrageous discoveries people make in their holiday accommodations. However, one woman\u2019s story about her bachelorette getaway is turning heads all across the net, as she believes her AirBnB hosts were spying on her and her friends. First uploaded to TikTok on August 14, user \u2018Hey Alexa\u2019s\u2019 fiance detailed the shocking conditions she supposedly discovered at a \u201cTranquil Waterfront Retreat Haven\u201d listed on AirBnB in San Rafael, California. Woman \u201cterrified\u201d after discovering cameras and hidden room According to the fiance, Alexa and a group of girlfriends were headed to the home to celebrate her bachelorette party when they found a \u201cfalse door\u201d that led to a \u201csecret staircase,\u201d seemingly attached to another floor of the residence \u2014 which they claim wasn\u2019t listed online. That\u2019s not all; the girls also discovered a slew of security cameras placed outside and supposedly saw a light turn on in an upstairs room, where a man was allegedly watching them. When the group called the authorities, the landlord was contacted and claimed they would arrive at the residence in \u201c25 minutes,\u201d but showed up \u201cwithin two or three minutes,\u201d leading the group to believe the hosts were actually living on the property without disclosing that information. In a follow-up video, Alexa claimed she\u2019d discovered a window in her bathroom that was supposedly attached to the wall that led up to the \u201cmystery upstairs unit,\u201d leaving her paranoid that she was being spied on. She and her group did a walk-through of the residence with law enforcement before packing up their things and leaving \u201cpeacefully.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s extremely violating and a horrible feeling,\u201d the TikToker said of her experience. \u201cPlease be aware of your surroundings and be safe.\u201d In yet another follow-up video, Alexa said that someone claiming they were a \u201cpool technician\u201d entered the property \u201csuper late at night,\u201d who they believe was the man supposedly watching them from the secret upstairs loft. She also stated that the group paid $4,6000 for a two-night stay and were not immediately refunded. She also attached texts with the host, who claimed in one message that \u201cnobody else lives on the property\u201d in response to her concerns. Alexa further claimed that she felt she and her friends were being \u201cactively surveilled,\u201d as the host messaged them as soon as they began fiddling with the controls on the hot tub. Alexa\u2019s videos have garnered over a million views as commenters express outrage over the situation, with some calling for the property to be banned from AirBnB. Although the original listing seems to have been removed from AirBnB, the same property is listed on a slew of other sites under the same title. In a listing taken from Hichee, the host writes that \u201cthe entire property, entire first floor, entire front courtyard, backyard with pool and spa and BBQ area, deck area where boat is docked,\u201d is accessible and that they are \u201cnearby by phone and fully accessible to assist.\u201d Dexerto has reached out to AirBnB for comment on the situation. This is just the latest AirBnB fiasco to take over the internet after a TikToker put her host on blast for their \u201ccrazy\u201d cleaning fees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Woman says she was spied on by AirBnB hosts living in secret loft on property TikTok: Heyylexa2A TikToker was left feeling \u201cterrified\u201d and \u201cviolated\u201d after discovering her AirBnB had a hidden loft concealed behind a \u201csecret wall,\u201d and believes the owners were spying on her and her friends.
