It’s no secret that I am a big AirBnb fan. I find that you can book great spots in many locals that can easily accommodate a larger group which becomes especially helpful when traveling with children. On a recent reservation I waited to post a review of my stay (I really just forgot.) When AirBnb emailed me offering a coupon good for $25 for my review if I completed it before a cut off date, I was intrigued. Of course I jumped on the chance for the $25 discount code and it got me thinking that this is one reason not to review AirBnb stays (at least not right away!) If you still haven’t tried AirBnb, what are you waiting for? You can score a $35 credit on your first stay when you sign up via my link, AirBnb.
AirBnb One Reason Not To Review Stays

The Deal
I didn’t review my stay right away and received the following offer for a coupon good for $25 off my next trip of $75Â if I completed my review within the next week. Of course that was just the motivation that I needed!
*Offer valid only for original recipients of this email. Leave a review for the property listed above by November 27, 2016 and we’ll send you a coupon good for $25 off your next trip of $75 or more. Offer will be fulfilled by December 18, 2016.
I have stayed at 21 airbnb’s this year across France, Italy, UK, Scotland and Ireland. Always had a good experience – except I despise the tricky 3% fee (almost hidden) that airbnb tacks on top of their service fee. Just an awful customer experience in my opinion and going down the road of all the airline fees.
Your thoughts?
Use HomeAway if you don’t want to pay as many fees. Best for families and groups.
Thanks Eric….We have used VRBO and Homeaway but the selection is not as great as Airbnb. I just hate the way Airbnb uses the 3% on top of their Service Fee. Thanks, Jeff
