Airbnb website
Anybody use airbnb, an application that links people with a room to let and guests at very reasonable prices. Reminds me of uber for taxis linking people one by one. I used the service in the us, stayed at a litleback-house, behind my hosts house, like a little appt for less than $100 a night.

Re: airbnb
Did you mean $100 dollars a night?

Re: airbnb
The wife found our last vacation rental on either airbnb or a similar site and all worked out well. They seem to be pretty popular
The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
Re: airbnb
Almost always when i got travelling i use airbnb, its a great site but you need to clarify if you are getting the propery to yourself or not. Why not read some blogs from people who've used the serveice...i'll leave a like at the bottom of the page for you. I have noticed tat there isnt a great deal of them though, so why dont you make one yourself if you do decide to use airbnb?? You can get hold of some good wordpress blogs below i believe.

Re: airbnb
Starting this coming weekend, my wife and I will be staying 6 nights in/around Hua Hin at 3 different places booked through airbnb(2 nights at each location). Sort of a trial run to see if we enjoy staying here for a possible future retirement. Wanted to get the feel of living in a condo complex versus staying in a hotel.oakdale160 wrote:Anybody use airbnb, an application that links people with a room to let and guests at very reasonable prices.

The 3 places are:
1) Summer(by Sansiri) in Khao Takiab - http://www.sansiri.com/condominium/summ ... ation.aspx
2) Wan Vayla(by Land & Houses) in Khao Tao - http://www.lh.co.th/condo/projects/209/ ... #&panel2-3
3) Blue Lagoon in Cha-Am - http://www.bluelagoonhuahin.com/
I wanted to try different areas to feel what the differences are. Will update here with our experiences after we've tried each of them if anyone is interested.
Re: airbnb
we are actually staying in one right now,4nights Bangkok thonglor.Its a 2 bed 2bath apartment 90sqm fully furnished.Its very nice,and thonglor is a very nice upmarket neighbourhood.It was very easy to book,the owner of condo was very nice and good with advice of where to visit ,eat etc.
I have two young kids and it is much more convenient to have a kitchen and extra space for them to play compared to a hotel room.
Total cost 2700bht a night.
When you book airbnb you have to tick whether you want to book entire house/condo or a room,if you don't you could be sharing with the host hence the name air bnb(bed and breakfast )or another guest,obviously cheaper to book just a room
