My Airbnb Review: Useful Chips and Bonuses

Bonus: 35 Euro to travel to your account with Airbnb The first time I learned about Airbnb back in 2010, and since then I use the service regularly. Only in the last year I rented a house with it 9 times and finally decided to write my personal review on BlogoItaliano. I want to immediately note that I used Airbnb not only in Italy, not only as a guest, and not every time I paid for services from my own pocket - often the service itself paid for the owners with me.
