After a stay at an AirBnB, I provided a review. A part of the review question was "What would you suggest as room for improvement?. AirBnB told me they will keep this answer confidential. In a few hours, I had multiple passive aggressive messages from the host about the "confidential" feedback.


Are you sure it said confidential? As far as I know Airbnb has always had a field for “A private note for the owner”. This is “confidential” between you and the owner, as in “not public”, but not between you and Airbnb.


I mean, likely AirBnB did relay the information confidentially... but doesn't take a genius to figure out which guest suddenly provided the confidential feedback which was sent on the day after your stay ending.


If you shared the content, you didn't keep it confidential. Maybe you are confused with anonymous?


Who did you think the feedback was for? AirBnB employees?
