The Mississippi property was listed as a “luxury getaway” on the vacation rental site.
Airbnb took down the listing shortly after and issued an apology.
The person who took ownership of the property last month, Brad Hauser, told the Post in a statement that the building had been a plantation doctor’s office and never housed slaves, but it was “the previous owner’s decision to market the building as the place where slaves once slept.” The 52-year-old host said he is “not interested in making money off slavery” and apologized for “insulting African Americans whose ancestors were slaves.”On Tuesday, Yates told The Post that he initially found out about the Greenville listing in a group text message.
