'My Airbnb flat was turned into a pop-up brothel'

Solution. Put up some Nanny Cams.
Catch them turn them in, shame them, evidence, or your own pleasure. Your home, your rules.
Just put that you have security cameras on the premise, just dont have to state where they are for security reasons.

"More specifically, we require hosts to disclose all cameras in listings and we prohibit any surveillance devices in certain private spaces (such as bedrooms and bathrooms) regardless of whether they’ve been disclosed."

I'm just never doing that. Who knows what people do in your place.

Of course this would come from the BBC instead of a US news source. Want the real news in the US, watch the BBC!
