She didn't like the smell of pot and all the partying going on there:

The 79-year-old says the kind of memories she had in mind involved fireworks, museums and festivities to honour Canada's 150th birthday — not stuffing rolled up towels under the door of her Airbnb rental to block the invasive smell of marijuana or seeing a crowd of revellers playing beer pong on the lawn to get to their front door.
Gibbs filed a lawsuit against Airbnb and the website's co-founder Brian Chesky in North Vancouver small claims court this week.
She's seeking $6,809.96 — a refund of the nights she didn't stay in the suite, as well as money to cover the bill of the hotel she and her family moved to out of frustration on the third day of their trip.
"This accommodation was clearly not, in any way, suitable for a family with young children. In fact it was not suitable for anyone wanting to sleep," Gibbs writes in her civil notice of claim.
"My Ottawa friends later described the area as a 'university pot ghetto.'"
What do you think? I think I'd be pretty upset too, mostly by the noise and partying that created such a disturbance.
