>Using AirBnB for the first time what should I expect?
am using it extensively for the last decade
mostly Europe (I'm euro myself) but some in Africa and Asia

honestly can't complain
never really had a bad experience
though I'm not on any meaningful budget, so I usually take the more upscale / nicer options

in less touristy areas, airbnb is sometimes the only "trustworthy" platform outside of hotel chains to get accommodation (although I heard horror stories about the customer support if things don't work out)

general tips
>check street view of home (and general location)
>always check full price, never by night
>obviously check the Reviews
>carefully!!! read the description, often people are disappointed because they are too stupid to read
>if you need more than 1 bed, always check each bed by pictures

some red flags you should pay attention to
>most photos from outside / destination and not inside
>too many close up shots / you never see the full room(s)
>neglected plants / landscape / furniture
>really long list of house rules

also never cancel a booking, always let the host (or airbnb support) cancel
