Guests rejected by Airbnb host because they're from Wales
Airbnb guests from Wales rejected by host in Manchester due to discrimination. Jemma Louise Gough and Jamie Lee Watkins were denied a booking for a gig at Co-op Live Arena because of their Welsh origin. The host, a verified "superhost," was suspended as Airbnb investigates the incident, stating discrimination has no place on the platform. The guests felt shocked and excluded, highlighting the need to challenge these narrow views and combat discrimination.
