5) Get in touch with hosts
Hosts are usually chatty—a fast response rate looks good on their profiles, after all, and it’s in their best interests to be communicative if they want to attract as many bookings as possible. You’ll find a Contact host button on every Airbnb listing.
If there’s anything that you’re not sure of, from the way that you gain entry to the property to the distance you’ll have to travel to restaurants and shops, ask the host directly. Almost all of the time, they’re going to be happy to help out.
Getting in touch with hosts is another helpful way of choosing between places you’d like to stay, too—it’s usually the case that the friendlier and more responsive the host, the better your Airbnb experience is likely to be overall.
