A woman believed she raised a serious safety issue while staying at an Airbnb, claiming the house had hidden cameras in its fire sprinklers… but the company is terminating the allegation, working with cops to make sure everything was okay.
The woman, who recently stayed at a Philadelphia rental property with a group of girlfriends, took to Twitter to say, “BE CAREFUL BOOKING AIR BNBs! My friend and I recently stayed at an air bnb in Philadelphia with over 10 hidden cameras all over the house. Including showers and bedrooms. Some were disguised as sprinkler systems, but there is a camera lens.”
She then posted a series of photos and videos from inside the house showing these alleged cameras.
We spoke to an Airbnb representative about the woman’s allegations, who says he took them very seriously, even working with the Philadelphia Police Department to get to the bottom of the matter.
The rep tells us that the lead detective, “confirmed that he found no hidden or undisclosed cameras and that the fire sprinklers had regular sprinkler heads. The detective also confirmed that they plan to close this case.”
Either way, Airbnb says they still appreciate how the woman felt…and will offer her support, including a refund.
