Yeah and I apologize, I was talking in a very US specific context and I should have specified that (the hostel comment kind of muddled it as well). I haven't tried airbnb abroad, and I'm glad it's more reasonable over in Portugal and Norway at least so i'll check it out if or when I decide to head that way. Just venting some general frustration using it in the US in my recent experiences.
