MENLO PARK, Calif. -- A Silicon Valley woman who rented out her home on Airbnb says her guest, a possible sex worker claiming to be a real estate agent, caused several thousand dollars in damages.

Sharon Marzouk documented the mess in video posted on Facebook. According to Marzouk, the woman left evidence of using the home to produce pornography, including sex toys and a production note listing x-rated images she planned to shoot.

"As the pieces kinda fell into place, that she was more than likely using my bathroom as a business for her to take photos of herself," Marzouk said.

Markzouk says her guest caused about $10,000 in water damages after leaving the bathtub water running.

Airbnb says it is working to cover the costs of the damage.
