Tips For Guests

Verify Host’s Profile: Before booking any listing it is ideal to check the host’s profile and verify it. Only book the listing if you find that the host is genuine. Or else you can skip to some other listings. Make Specific Searches: You can search for your desired listings by selecting your destination, your check-in and check-out time. You can also filter the search results by the number of guests. This will save you a lot of time and help you book the perfect space as per your requirements. Focus On The Pictures: While booking a place you can look at the pictures of the listing to make a better idea about the space you are going to book. Good hosts always try to put the best pictures of their listing on Airbnb. So, looking at pictures carefully you can make the decision whether you want to book this property or not. Research About The Location: Do research about the locality in which you are going to book a property. If you book a listing without doing any research then you can end up booking a place that is far off from the city. So, it’s better to do a little research about the location prior to booking. Mind The Cancellation Policy: The cancellation policy is an important factor that you should consider before booking a listing. Once booked a place, if you change your mind or due to some other reasons you want to cancel your booking then this policy will come in handy. Never go for a listing that has no proper cancellation policy. Contact The Host: If you face any issue while booking a place or you have some queries about the listings then you can directly contact the host. This will also help you know the host personally before booking their place. Negotiate The Price: Unlike hotel bookings, there’s always room for a little bargaining on Airbnb. You can contact the host and ask for some negotiation on the price, you can also ask them to apply some special offers on their listings. Use The App: Once you have booked your listing from the website, it’s better to use the Airbnb iOS app or Airbnb Android app for fast communication with the host. It’s not possible to use the laptop or desktop every time to communicate with the host. That’s why you should download the app and use it on the go.
