You haven't lived until you find out your host lied about the address so it wouldn't tip off their landlord, who forbid it in their lease

Had this very experience happen to me a few years back. Took a cab to the advertised address. Door locked. So I call the host and the host gives us a different address.

Catch a taxi to the other address and report it to Airbnb along with a request for cab refund (Airbnb just ignored the request). Host just started listing in a different address afterwards.
