oh i hate people who make false reviews
i reluctantly ran in to a issue when one of my guests stayed for three nights and took all mine fine wines and spirits ( btw also he admitted to airbnb for dooing that) and calmed that if its in the house its a part of their stay can someone understand this i think its a joke
i am not a cheap host i always buy simple food for my guests for the next morning just in case they didnt get to brig anything and so they dont have to look for stores in the morning
and after i used the Deposit money they leave me this false review
keeping in mind that before that everything was great and they were very happy
can someone tell me if it is a good idea of leaving alcohol in the house for the future stays?

Did you revise your house rules after this? I wouldn't address alcohol explicitly, would just say something about personal items in the home not explicitly labeled and/or stated for guest use are not to be used. The review doesn't read that bad just honest. I could see how a guest who rents an entire house where there are items stocked for guest use may not realize the alcohol wasn't included. I would get the bathroom fixed ASAP.

Well the house rule was there eversince I stared on airbnb and I would never as a renter touch anyones bottle collection to me it's just a no-brainer well this is someones house after all it's not a hotel room right but this incident changed my mind about this

I don't think it's a good idea. I don't leave it in my apartment listing.

I leave a bottle of port and a bottle of sherry for nmy guest to drinlk while they are here. If there was something I didn't want them to consume, I would lock it up in a cupboard.

I think leaving any alcohol visible and not locked up is asking for trouble or theft. Most guests are polite and would not steal, but invariably someone would be tempted by this, particularly someone with an alcohol problem, so I think it would be best not to have any alcohol on display. Especially if you are renting a whole apartment/house. In that case it is even more likely to end up being taken.
