Worst Airbnb host

Above is a link to the host's profile page where it shows all of his listings. Some of his locations may be better than others, but the one I attempted to stay in with other roommates did not work out at all. I came to this updated listing in May 2022: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/540180480632419123?source_impression_id=p3_1660912535_tfClezO1vvM5hv3e. It used to be a whole apartment with two rooms, but Airbnb delisted it, causing the host to list the rooms separately.
The roommates who did book the place for all of us can't leave a review on Airbnb because the host canceled our reservation. For starters, I arrived to the apartment and we we're met with multiple ant traps placed in different areas where ants were mainly present. Personally, I didn't mind too much, but it is dishonest for the host to not have informed us of a known ant infestation beforehand. Also, we noticed that some of the bed frames were damaged. Afterwards, the roommates who originally booked were still on the phone with customer support for several hours to try and get a different Airbnb listing for us all. What mainly bugged them was the bed they were sharing had appeared damaged and it smelled. After that particular issue was brought up to customer support, they delisted the property, resulting in the host retaliating by canceling our reservation and demanding we all leave immediately. That made everything about the trip very stressful since we had to find a hotel right away, which we did, fortunately.
I do hope that terrible host chooses to accommodate guests better by responding to their needs with more empathy, instead of offering us to leave with a full refund. His efforts were to ensure that no one else will know that there is an ant infestation and that the property had a moldy bed. Who knows? Maybe that bed has been replaced by now. Tread all of his listings with caution, and immediately report issues with his properties to Airbnb.
