I just visited this new apartment, so i met the guy and seen the appartment. The other one also has a rental company (many rental companies on airbnb) so i searched his site. Many people make a facebook page for their property, so you can read the reviews etcetra. And offcourse you see the airbnb reviews of the people who paid the full price.
Maybe i will get scamed once, but already saved much more. Like in Brazil, saw something on airbnb on an island. And cause i stayed there before for months i was sure we must have a friends connection together, search the name and there it was. I book many times just days before. So people are willing to give a good price. And many times i fill it up till it is rented out to someone else. They can fill all the dates and willing to make a good price.
