Airbnb is a site that allows people to rent accommodation. The host creates its own profile page, and a rental profile page also contains recommendations from other people, reviews from the place’s guests and an evaluation of the place, and the host can communicate with the guests via a private messaging system.
Establishment of Airbnb
In August 2008, airbnb.com, based in San Francisco, USA, was established to provide booking to 33,000 cities in 192 countries around the world.
According to the site’s sources, 10 million reservations are made every day around the world. This site provides all kinds of accommodation that the traveler is looking for: room, studio, apartment, chalet, villa, cottage, farm accommodation, camping outside the city … etc at a very attractive price compared to the quality of the offer and its location.
Is booking by Airbnb safe?
absolutely yes! The Airbnb site management has imposed some stringent procedures on the site, to ensure that the passengers have the credibility of the offer, as well as the opinions of previous guests who used the site when searching for accommodation.
How do we book accommodation from Airbnb?
At first we log on to this website at airbnb.com or by downloading mobile application (Android and iPhone) from stores and then register by signing up or register with your Facebook account or create a new account on the site. Please, keep in mind that you you can use an official coupon code for your first trip with Airbnb.
Then fill out the required data (Note: the data must be correct and identical, because the entered name will be in the booking sheet)
Then you search for the house, select the city, the desired date and the number of people, and a list of the available accommodation will appear according to the previously entered data. When you look at the map you will see a large collection of pink balloons. You can distinguish the chosen apartment from these balloons by placing the mouse on the picture of the apartment and changing the color from pink to blue.
Important advice
Before completing the booking of the apartment, we recommend that you contact the owner of the apartment and ask the owner of the apartment and you can negotiate with the owner of the apartment and ask other questions before the final booking.
Cancellation Policy
This information is found on the apartment data sheet. Press the word Cancellation.
Do not book an apartment unless you are sure you may lose a lot of money. If you do not like the apartment for some reason, such as cleanliness or pictures, it is not the case.
The location is great with the offers it offers, and the prices are very competitive and especially that you are a single traveler (non family) and provides you with all kinds of accommodation required and different tastes.
It is very important to read the comments of previous guests as they know the pros and cons.

There are some serious advantages of Airbnb, but there are also some flaws as well. Everyone writes about positive sides so I will do the opposite. What I don’t like about Airbnb is pictures quality. I have no idea why most of apartments have really low quality photos. I have no idea why. Do hosts have to pay for high quality photos? Or is there any limitation in terms of photo resolution? Someone should really have a closer look as photos are crucial when you want to rent an apartment.
