Playing detective to unravel mysteries sounds great in theory. But it’s not all fun and games in real life–especially while vacationing in an Airbnb. And discovering hidden components in the rental that are not disclosed in the listing isn’t usually on anyone’s itinerary.
However, this occurrence has become all too common. Guests across the internet have shared their stories of unearthing secret compartments in their Airbnbs. In June, one woman stumbled upon a door under the bed that led through a crawl space. The following month, a group of women residing at a unit in Victoria, Australia, found a door under the kitchen counter connecting a staircase to an empty utility space. Now, a group of friends uncovered a secret room lurking above their heads.
