Crashpadder 'Home' Accommodation

Posted in Best Websites to find a Flat


Crashpadder is a homestay community that has members all over the world. With Crashpadder hosts earn extra money from their spare space, and travellers save money on expensive hotels and avoid the discomfort of hostels - by staying with a friendly local.

How does it work?

Very simply indeed.

Step 1: Someone has a spare room, bed or sofabed in their home. They list it on Crashpadder, along with a description, pictures, the price per night plus how they'd like to be paid. They are now a Padder.

Step 2: Someone else finds the Padder's spare room and decides they'd like to stay there for a night or more. They make a booking request. They are now a Crasher.

Step 3: The Padder checks out the Crasher's profile, reliability rating and feedback. They may also message the Crasher for more information. Once the Crasher's booking has been accepted their credit card will be debited for either 10% or the full booking amount, depending on the Padder's payment preferences. They have booked a homestay!

After the stay the Crasher and the Padder will shake hands warmly (perhaps even have a quick embrace) and then leave feedback for one another for the whole world to see.
