Flying out to HK/SIN and I booked airbnb at both places. Saving over $1K versus staying at a hotels. This is my first time booking airbnb and I'm not really sure how I feel about airbnb because of the lack of communication with both hosts.

HK - I messaged the host 3 weeks ago to confirm what the check in procedure is, tells me she will tell me 1 week before I fly. Well I'm flying in a few days and haven't heard anything. Not very communicative as well because it took the host like a week to answer how to check in, only to tell me she will tell me a week before hand. Kind of makes no sense telling me 3 weeks ago versus 1 week before hand as the procedure is the same?

SIN - On the hosting ad, the host mentioned they are available on weekends to show around places, I figured, sweet deal (less planning on my end and can chill and meet some new people while they can show me around). Very communicative when I was asking questions prior to "payment". Now that I have paid, host doesn't respond to my questions when I tried to ask about if they can show me around.

Any of you guys have communication issues with airbnb hosts?
