A stranger walked into my Airbnb room at 2am – I'll always triple check the address after getting a 'rude awakening'

AN AIRBNB guest got a rude awakening when a stranger walked into the bedroom he was sleeping in the following day.

Paul Drecksler was traveling all day when he finally arrived at what he thought was his South Florida home rental at 2am one evening.


Drecksler said he arrived to find the home exactly as described on the Airbnb app, accessing the home through an unlocked door.

"In the bedroom, the bed was made and ready to go, and there were two clean folded towels waiting for me,” Drecksler told WSVN.

The travel-weary man said he fell asleep and awoke to find a very confused homeowner.

"The next morning, I get woken up by a knock on the door. I was surprised the guy even knocked on his own door.

"He goes, 'Hey, can I help you? This is my house,' and I'm like, 'Um, no, this is an Airbnb that I rented.' He goes, 'No, this is my house,'" Drecksler said.

"I could’ve been woken up to an angry homeowner. Really bad things could’ve happened."

The homeowner eventually escorted Drecksler to the exit, and he eventually found his rental next door.

“I had accidentally got the address wrong going from the Airbnb app into the Google maps; the address became the house right next door,” Drecksler explained to the outlet.

He added: “In hindsight, now, I look back, all the clues were there. This is not the right Airbnb, but at 2 o’clock, your brain is like, this is it. This is the one."

Drecksler said he will be more careful in the future by double-checking his Airbnb rental information.
