You’re just not into couchsurfing, you’re over hosteling, you think hotels are too impersonal, but a bed and breakfast is beyond your budget.

Where can you find a place, then, to lay your tired head?

The answer?

Airbed and Breakfast.

The service, brokered entirely via website, is described as “an online marketplace for peer-to-peer traveling.” People who love travel can connect with one another, with home or apartment owners making a little extra cash and tired travelers getting not only a safe place to sleep, but also local insights.

San Francisco roommates Joe Gebbia and Brian Chesky came up with the idea for Airbed & Breakfast a year ago, and the concept spread quickly: the website now lists accommodations in 482 cities in 63 countries.

With rooms going for $35 a night in popular destinations like New York City, Airbed & Breakfast is definitely worth checking out for your next trip.
