Do you believe that the right accommodation can have a great influence on your vacation? I do. I usually search for the accommodation on-line and now I know what to do if I don’t want to be cheated on. But I want to share my first experience with you. It was my first time I was looking for the accommodation on the internet, and… of course, I was cheated. That time I was going to Bulgaria and I had very little money, so I decided to save them on the accommodation. I found the cheapest apartment I could and then mailed to the landlord. Very soon I got the response with the pictures of the apartment I wanted to rent. Besides, the landlord also wrote that if I wanted to stay in it, I should send the money to him immediately. So did I! After that I didn’t hear from him any more. In a week I understood that I lost my money and I was cheated. I understood my fault but I decided not to give up. I wanted to go somewhere but this time I decided to be more cautious. First of all, I found some information how to find the right accommodation on-line. Very soon I found the place where I could stay in Bulgaria. I called the landlord and we discussed all the conditions with her. When I came to that apartment, I fell in love with it at a first sight. I also understood one thing – you should never be in a hurry while searching for the accommodation. Besides, ask the landlord to provide you with the permanent phone number and try to check if it is real through the internet. Besides, never send money in advance, otherwise you can be cheated on.
