we just had a first negative experience after having used Airbnb for a while.

The apartment was very nice and well located, but!

The cost announced was 45 € for the apartment and 7 € for the taxes of the service, and we were only told of the over-cost of 25€ for the cleaning previous to having being there once confirmed and without any possibility of changing or canceling.

We understand that you cannot be demanded to pay in cash using Airbnb as is specified in the rules of the service, literally “Airbnb does not endorse cash payments. In order to uphold our Terms of Service, transactions must take place on the site.” “https://www.airbnb.com/help/question/51”
