This is my go to booking site, primarily because of the gay ethos. I’ve stayed in some amazing places and never had any problems. One thing I’d like to see is the option to search locations under gay... See more

Love everything about about misterbnb. But they need to stop having the hidden costs, it is misleading! Show the whole cost from the beginning

On this occasion, the bandb was exactly as described. The hosts were nice and sweet and very efficiently Germanic! ;-)

Hosts reject requests or don't respond. WEERE is a trap.

You spend a lot of time finding the right place to rent, and then when you send requests, the hosts far too often don't respond or they reject (No, I have no bad reviews). My most recent experience was that my request was rejected because the host wanted more money than advertised. I wrote back, ok, you'll get it, and then I never heard from him again.
Along with a request, you have to give your credit card no., but they promise that no amount will be charged before the rental is confirmed. But after a few days they withdraw 30 Euros from your account for some dating site called WEERE, which you (automatically?) have signed up for without noticing (I'm not the only customer with that experience). They should make it clearer and ask for explicit permission to charge you the 30 Euros for WEERE. Then a lot of frustration could be avoided.
Fortunately, you get that amount refunded when you write to their customer service, which is hard to find on the website by the way. So they get 1 star for the idea behind MisterBnB, and 1 star for a quick refund for a service you never meant to ask for. The remaining points go to the hetero competitor, and that is so sad.

Hi Michael,

We’re truly sorry to hear about your frustrating experience, as we understand how disappointing it can be to spend time finding a place and then have your requests declined or go unanswered. Our hosts are private individuals, not professional agencies, so their response habits and availability can sometimes vary, even though we continuously encourage better responsiveness across the platform.

We’re also sorry for the confusion regarding the weere subscription. It can be added during the booking flow and may sometimes be selected unintentionally, but if the service wasn’t used, our team can quickly refund it, as happened in your case. We also appreciate your feedback about the clarity of this step and about how easy it is to reach our support team, as this helps us improve the experience for everyone. We truly hope you can understand our response and that you might consider giving us another chance in the future.

Kind regards,
The misterb&b team

Fabulous vacation made easy

This was the first time I had contacted any type of a B and B. I found Misterb&b to be easy, efficient, trustworthy and responsive. Knowing that our experience would be gay friendly and knowledgeable was very reassuring. Sure enough we found ourselves in safe, great company and met many new friends in Puerto Vallarta.

I’ve had consistently great experiences…

I’ve had consistently great experiences with both the hosts and the Mister B&B platform. It’s amazing to have a space created specifically for gay men where you know you’ll be safe, welcomed, and respected while traveling. Beyond just a place to stay, I’ve made genuine connections and new friendships along the way. Highly recommend to anyone looking for inclusive, comfortable, and community-focused travel

Travel With Pride, Comfort, and Connection

Misterb&b does something truly special for the LGBTQ+ community. It’s not just about finding a place to stay — it’s about feeling safe, welcomed, and genuinely connected, no matter where in the world you are.

What I love most is how the platform brings people together from all walks of life. Hosting and staying in real homes adds a personal, human touch you just don’t get with traditional travel. Every stay feels a little more meaningful, a little more memorable — sometimes fun, sometimes unique, always welcoming.

Through Misterb&b, I’ve been able to connect with my community across borders, cultures, and cities, and that’s powerful. It turns travel into shared experiences, not just transactions.

Thank you to Misterb&b for creating a service that truly puts community, inclusion, and comfort first. This platform matters — and it makes a real difference.
Highly recommended 💙🌍

Poor practice

I found the whole experience with this company quite poor. But what really sealed it for me was that without permission, they signed me up to a three subscription for Weere. I didn’t ask for it I didn’t click for it. But then I had to make a But then I had to make an effort to unsubscribe.The sort of behaviour that decent companies don’t participate in.

Hi Tim,
We’re truly sorry to hear that this experience was disappointing for you, and we fully understand how upsetting it can be to discover a subscription you didn’t intend to keep, especially when trust is involved. The Weere subscription can be added during the booking or sign-up flow, and it’s unfortunately possible to select it by mistake without realizing it at the time; that said, if the service wasn’t used, our team can, of course, review the situation and issue a refund, and unsubscribing is always possible directly from your account. We genuinely regret that this caused frustration and extra effort on your part, as this is not the experience we want anyone to have, and we apologize that it left you with such a negative impression.

Nightmare

I am part of the LGBTQ community and I always try to support LGBTQ focused platforms, which is why I trusted MrB&B in the first place. I genuinely believed I was supporting a community based service that protects LGBTQ travelers. I had no idea MrB&B was connected to Booking and if I had known that, I would have never used it.

When the property I booked turned out to be fraudulent, MrB&B provided absolutely no real help. You cannot call anyone. The only way to communicate is through email, and every time I reached out they either tried to close the case without resolving anything or kept telling me to contact the host or Booking instead. They repeatedly said they could not help because my reservation was technically processed through another party, yet the listing was still on their platform. That means there is no accountability at all. They simply pass you around instead of protecting their customers.

They did not answer my questions properly, they did not guide me, and they offered zero real support in a situation that was stressful, time sensitive, and involved international holiday travel. As an LGBTQ traveler, I trusted MrB&B to be safer, more responsible, and community oriented. Instead, I felt completely abandoned and unsupported when I needed help the most.

They were honestly useless. Save yourself the stress, your money, and your vacation. Do not book through MrB&B if you actually want protection, accountability, or peace of mind.

Easy as!!

Just found them, found what I was looking for, and that was that. The actual booking process took less than 2 minutes.

AVOID AVOID AVOID

Total scam

Took unauthorised payments from my credit card...no response to complaint.

Have all your details inc phone and credit card but try and get you to give passport and govt id details as well

Obstructively tried to deny existed. .but made mistake of revealing name and phone number on account. Then claimed had refunded (as stated by them in reply) BUT actually took a second unauthorised payment for same amount next day and cancelled a due sum already refunded. All documented.

Then to be even more obstructive claimed here they could not trace despite having full email account details.

Also appear to think UK law does not apply to them.

Matt, the Weere subscription can be added during the booking flow, so you likely picked it by mistake. If you didn’t use the service, our team can refund you quickly. Feel free to reach out to us anytime.

MisterBnB: all words, no actions , customer last!

Response to Mister BNB's response:
I thank you for taking the time to respond to my review on Trustpilot however this issue has been ongoing since 1st August 2025 (4 months) and I'm still not satisfied with all of this.
I notice in your reply that you have chosen not to respond to my last remaining issue I have, which is that the voucher you gave me as part of the compensation for my extra costs is practically unusable. I accepted it because I wanted this to end but what you failed to tell me was that it's not taken by most of your hosts on your site which makes it just a piece of paper with no value. I have tried to use it on 6 different occasions and 6 different properties and of those 6 only 1 would accept it but I still couldn't use it because they failed to respond to my request to rent their property. It runs out after 6 months (so January / February time 2026) so I am going to once again lose £150 because I'm not able to use it through no fault of my own.
Please explain to me how that is putting the customer first? I have been fighting with you over this since 1st August 25 and after 4 months you are still not addressing my issues and telling me what you are going to about the vouchers you gave me that I cannot use ?
You at no point told me that the majority of your hosts don't accept your vouchers. If you had been honest and upfront with me I wouId never have accepted them. You deliberately withheld that information to get rid of me. I accepted those vouchers believing I would be able to use them yet 6 tries later I'm stuck with them and you have chosen to ignore that in your response????
A company that makes anyone have to fight this hard to get what they are entitled to can say what they like about how good their customer service is or should be , but actions speak louder than words and in the case of Mister BnB there are a lot of good words but a total lack of actions ! And that makes your words worthless , just like the vouchers you fobbed me off with !
Back over to you now ! Round 5 !

MisterB&B can’t be trusted

I booked an apartment in Madrid through this site. Upon arrival, the apartment looked nothing like the apartment shown in the photos. It was small, cramped, and dark. I contacted the apartment manager who refused to do anything, telling me i needed to talk to the booking company.
I emailed MisterB&B for help. Initially, they said they would try and get a refund. After weeks of back-and-forth they told me it was out of their control as they were not responsible because it went through one of their “booking partners”. I had no idea when I made the reservation that they were going to shirk responsibility. Their site claims they provide support, but they don’t. They provide only lip service.

We are truly sorry to read that your arrival in Madrid was so disappointing and that your experience did not match what you had booked. We sincerely understand your frustration and hope you can feel our empathy as you read this response. When an accommodation does not match the photos, you deserve clear and prompt support. In your case, the difficulty came from the fact that the reservation was handled by one of our partner agencies: in such situations, we can manage the follow-up for you, but some actions (such as an immediate refund) depend on their own procedures, which can extend the timelines. We are truly sorry that this made you feel like you were being sent from one contact to another — that is never our intention. Even when a booking is managed through a partner, we remain available to take over if you prefer that we handle everything for you. Your feeling that our support didn’t meet your expectations is something we take to heart. We genuinely hope these explanations help you better understand what happened and that you will give us another chance to offer you a smoother, clearer experience that truly reflects the community we want to build with you.
