If you have a strict no-smoker policy and they arrive smelling of cigarette, you have a right to deny them and contact Airbnb to request they be rehoused elsewhere without a refund. You can also charge penalties for breaching your house rules but Airbnb requires proof and that can be tricky.

You will need to have something to cover up the smell of the smoke, so try lighting a couple of sticks of incense or a scented candle. If you don't have any of these things, then you can also spray some air freshener around your room before and after you start smoking. Block smoke from exiting under your bedroom door.

The easiest, most low-tech way to find a camera is to perform the kind of search Calwell's friend did: Turn off all the lights, sweep a flashlight around the room, and look for reflections that might indicate a lens. Go slowly, since a glint from a lens can be pinpoint-small.
