Sincerely whenever I check into a new hotel room these days, I first switch off the lights and scan the room with my phone camera. So many sick people out there today.

How does this work pls?

Airbnb essentially is someone offering his or her private residence for tourists and travellers to stay for short term

Naturally owner won't want any of his or her property to be stolen or damaged hence that may be why the cameras are there.

It may not be for ulterior motives.
I think you have a point

The owner must have removed the cameras before the arrival of police.

I don't know if I am being paranoid or what, but whenever I check in any hotel, I turn off the light and scan the whole place with my phone's camera - you can't be too careful.

Anyways, according to this post, the police did not find any hidden cameras

Boss how will you know there's a camera there??

A woman has issued a warning after she allegedly found 10 creepy spy cameras concealed around a rental property she booked on Airbnb.

The traveller shared her "scary ordeal" after realising there was cameras "hidden all over the house" during her stay in Philadelphia, USA.

The Twitter user named @foxytaughtyou said people "should be cautious" and said, "some were disguised as sprinkler systems."

She was left severely creeped out when her friend reportedly came across more "in the showers and bedrooms."

She said the platform moved them to another property after they alerted Philadelphia police.

Airbnb have since offered her a refund but claim police have told them they found no hidden cameras at the property.

The woman tweeted on June 13: “We reported this to [Airbnb] and to the police station Friday noon and still have not had a update on this case.

“We have no idea what footage this owner has and what he is doing with it!

“This is so UNSAFE, and scary! Thank God we noticed the cameras and got out of there!”

In a video on TikTok, the pair said they fell asleep on the sofa and discovered the cameras on the ceiling when they woke up.

She added: “We were creeped out and we decided to look everywhere in the Airbnb, all over the ceiling, and see if there’s any more cameras.

The woman tweeted on June 13: “We reported this to [Airbnb] and to the police station Friday noon and still have not had a update on this case.

“We discovered that the sprinklers had a camera lens. We got on the chair and we did a flash test on these sprinklers and they are cameras.”

A spokesperson for Airbnb told The Independent: “Our policies strictly prohibit hidden cameras and we take forceful action in the exceptionally rare circumstances where this has been reported, including assisting law enforcement to help them hold criminals accountable.

“In this case, our Safety team has suspended this Host and removed this listing from our platform while we thoroughly investigate this report. We are also providing support to our guest, including a full refund.”

Airbnb has since confirmed to the Daily Star that police investigators are planning to close the case.

However, the company said they will still support the customer and issue them a refund.

"We have thoroughly looked into this allegation as we do for all safety reports," the spokesperson said.

"Today, we spoke directly with the lead detective from the Philadelphia Police Department who responded to the complaint and investigated the property.

"He confirmed that he did not find any hidden or undisclosed cameras and that the fire sprinklers had regular sprinklerheads.

"The detective also confirmed that they plan to close this case."

In case you people don't know, every hotel has hidden camera In all rooms infact when you are doing your thing it's better to switch off the lights to do your adult things unless you want to see your sextapes leaked I was worked in a newly built hotel where a customer reported that his wrist watch worth 200,000 naira is Missing when the housekeeper that clean the guest room was called upon she denied taking the watch , the guest threatened to deal with the lady house keeper the matter got to the oga of the hotel who immediately got to his private room in the hotel played the CCTV camera footage via his phone to the customer it was noticed that the customer was captured putting the watch inside her bag , the guest was embrassed because she searched her bag to see same watch, so all hotels have hidden camera planted in all rooms even when there is crime it can be tracked or traced through CCTV control room it's a private room in hotels not everyone knows it or have access to it .

That is a very crappy analogy there!

So Hotel rooms should have cameras too?

Or landlords should put cameras inside the housing unuts they rent out?

Abi which kain talk be dis?

The lady is a liar .... did not want to pay. No doubt... some landlords do that all the time ... and face prison time and fines all the time. A residence with soo many hidden cameras.... they discover them ... notify they Police... but by the time the Police arrived ... the hist removed all the cameras. Where were they when the cameras were being removed? They scanned for cameras but didn't take video evidence? I just hope the host takes them to court .
