As you mentioned, tipping isn’t accepted in Japan. As to the situation, all you can do is leave them the best review you can. [Airbnb][1] provides some guidance on this: > #Should I tip my experience host? > It's up to you. Your host set a price they expect will fully cover your experience. We suggest you research cultural hospitality norms in your destination. If you want to show appreciation for your host, write a review encouraging other guests to book their trip.
