It was an unpleasant welcome-back sight for a couple who rented their Calgary home out through the website Airbnb.
The two-storey house was trashed from top to bottom after Mark and Star King rented it to four people through the short-term rental website this past weekend. The renters indicated they were in town for a wedding, but hosted a party for about 100 people instead.

Picture floors covered with broken glass and soaked with alcohol, walls smeared with condiments and garbage everywhere.
“We have been in very close contact with these hosts and we are working quickly to reimburse them under our $1 million host guarantee, which covers a host’s property in the rare event of damages,” read a statement by Airbnb.
The renters have been banned from the website, and the Calgary Police service said they are considering laying criminal charges for the $75,000 worth of damage.
