I recently reached out regarding a property listed through Wanderer on Airbnb to ask about hosting a very small baby shower for about two hours. My message was detailed and respectful, explaining that it would simply be a quiet gathering of close family to open gifts and spend a little time together.
While I completely understand that some properties may not allow gatherings, I was disappointed by the response I received, which was simply “no thank you,” without any additional context or courtesy. The answer itself wasn’t the issue — property policies are of course up to the host — but the tone and lack of customer service left the impression that my inquiry wasn’t given much consideration.
As someone who always tries to communicate respectfully when reaching out to hosts, I would have appreciated a more thoughtful response. Customer service and communication go a long way in creating a positive experience for potential guests.
