Airbnb guest checks into her room in Wales, expecting her friend, but instead finds a wholesome wooly imposter waiting for her in bed

We've seen our fair share of weird experiences with Airbnb rentals. One couple woke in the middle of the night to find packs of wolves surrounding their Airbnb, howling in a pawsitively ominous tone. Another host rented out their place to Airbnb, and had a guest deliberately leave the gate open so their dog would escape. From our pawsonal experience, we once had an Airbnb host insist on staying in the basement while we rented the rest of the house. He said he wouldn't bother us, but it did, in fact, bother us. We left to stay in a hotel.

Turns out it's not so uncommon to find a surprise guest in your Airbnb, as a woman traveling through Wales found one in hers as well! She went to check in, expecting her friend to be there, but what she found was more wooly than human! That's right - she found a sheep on one of the beds, just staring at her from the bedroom. This wholesome imposter must have snuck in through the window to enjoy the peace and quiet of some nice, clean linens. Well, at the very least, she shouldn't have any trouble falling asleep tonight, she has live sheep to count!

No matter how hungry you are, do not eat the chocolates! They won't even taste good. And, as cute as this is, you should probably clean the sheets before hopping into bed. We're not saying this sheep is dirty, but we like to keep our farm animals separate from where we sleep.

If you think about it, they got a floofy pet for free, which sounds like a great deal to us! Most people would have to pay to go to a petting zoo to see a sheep up close like that, but this one came with the reservation. We're ready to book ASAP.
