Have you ever planned to go to a holiday and started looking over the Internet where to book your accommodation? There are many sites, that one can book the hotel / apartment / shared room or what suits you for your holiday.
Today I am suggesting one site that I use for booking my accommodations for my trips. AirBNB gives you unique experiences of renting homes in the kind of style you want. There are many stories and myths behind this site. These stories happen is because there are fake accounts but there are also good ones, for this reason, the good ones can’t be stated as wrong.
Choose carefully your apartment. Research over the site for your apartment to your liking, such as – The location, how many people and rooms; check your requirements needs (free Internet, parking, hair dryer, washing, dishwasher, etc). Check out all the photos of the apartments. Read the details (description and rules) of the apartment. There are also the reviews from previous experiences of other travellers being hosted by the owner. These will help you seek for the top rated ones.
As this is not a hotel, it is a property hosted by an owner, AirBNB gives you the opportunity to message the owner before you book. Text them by describing yourself and when you are travelling and why. If you don’t know the location ask them about the location so you know what you can reach easily such as transport / shops etc… The last and not least; “Trust your guts”… If you don’t have a good feeling about the host or property… choose another.

I have been using AirB&B for the past couple of years and I love it. Apart from giving me a selection of unique places where to stay, it also gives me the opportunity to get to know the area from the locals who I stay with.
