I've encountered several instances where i've put my apartment up for rent and after some research it becomes apparant that some last-minute bookings are being made by prostitutes. I've come to this conclusion after cross-checking their stories and asking questions about odd arrival times and wide-gaps between message response time. I understand it's not right to accuse someone of this, but how can i decline a booking based on the fact that i've become uncomfortable with the guest without violating discrimination policies.

I see you have changed your minimum stay requirement to 3 nights. That should help. Also, have you set Verified ID required to book on your listing?
I would also suggest that you set your booking window to require at least 1 day notice to avoid last minute, same day bookings which I would imagine hookers would want. You might also consider enabling Instant Book.
With IB Airbnb is much more forgiving on cancellations when a host is not confortable with the guest. And, with Instant Book, you can require that guests have previous positive reviews from hosts. That should cut out the unseemly overnighters I would think. Its not illegal to ban a Lady of the Night or Man of the Hour from staying in your property.
Especially considering you dont run a brothel. On the upside allowing them in I suppose you wouldn't have to worry about a lot of cleaning the kitchen or the apartment.
