The first time someone uses Airbnb it may be a little scary but the experience can turn out perfect. Airbnb is usually less expensive than a hotel and that is the draw for many people. It is also easier to get a true feel for your destination than a sterile hotel. Depending on what you are looking for you can rent a private home, private room or a shared room. Your hosts may be in the home or not. Use the filters provided to book what will best fit your needs.
Key Takeaways:
- Using Airbnb for the first time can be both an exciting and slightly anxious experience.
- One aspect that draws travelers to Airbnb is that it is frequently cheaper than hotels. Therefore, it’s important to temper your expectations.
- If you are wary about staying in a stranger’s home, you have the option of renting from a Superhost — someone who has consistently received positive reviews.
“That, I learned, is the key to using Airbnb: By knowing what you want in your lodgings, you can make the service work for you.”
