Meanwhile, the infuriating incident sent the teen into an absolute state of dilemma. And that’s when she decided to seek legal action regarding the matter. Sadia also expressed how she wouldn’t be returning to the application, anytime soon. And that’s because their behavior was simply appalling.

Reports confirmed how Sadia planned on embarking on a trip with her sister. But little did she know about the horrors that lay in store for her. With her 19th birthday coming up, the teen opted to celebrate in sheer style. Hence, the rude awakening not only spoiled her mood but her plans too.

With Melbourne’s 111-day lockdown lifted, citizens are now looking for great options for leisure. And Sadia was a part of the bunch.

She explained how she even paid half of the Airbnb amount, as the regulations. And after nearly two days, the host responded in a rather deleterious manner. The exact words comprised of, ‘If you are black, then please forgive us. We simply can’t accept you.’

Needless to say, the Australian teen was truly taken aback regarding the horrifying racism involved. The message made the teen feel confused and enraged at the same time. What could skin color have to do with an Airbnb stay in the first place?
