I was recently looking at a property on Airbnb for £46 a night. I contacted the host who offered me the property (without touching any pricing) for £51 per night. I mentioned this left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth and the host cancelled the offer. Looking at the property again it’s now £59 per night. This all happened over 30 minutes or so.

My friend, who I sent the link before the ‘smart pricing’ surge, was able to book it for the original £46.

I’ve been reading some comments from people who suspect that accounts with fewer bookings are likely to see lower prices. And also accounts from certain countries see lower prices too.

What’s your experience?
