Couchsurfing used to be an incredible community. I've made some of my best friends from CS, and had some of the coolest travel experiences of my life! Unfortunately CS is not what it used to be. The team behind the app now only looks out for "stakeholder value", continuously increases monthly subscription cost with absolutely zero updates to the app/website in the nearly 7 years I've been using it. Many OGs have left and new folks tend to be entitled in my experience. Extremely disappointing.

AVOID! I used it mostly for the hangout feature which sucked. You have to pay for a subscription to use the app at all, so you don't even get a trial. After a few days, I tried to delete my profile, but it turns out they don't have a button for that and they make it extremely difficult. Apparently they want to keep your data and maybe even charge your card for auto-renewal if you can't figure it out. They make you send them an email requesting deletion and you have to provide info. Don't sign up

This app is just rubbish! I've been on this app for several weeks. I've sent requests after requests and all have been declined except for one. I was grateful for my first and probably last CS stay. I don't know why people decline, saying they're not available because they are out of town, yet when you go through the filters and choose ONLY ACCEPTING, all are under that. If they are "not available" then change your status or whatever it's called to NOT ACCEPTING. What a waste of time!

We're sorry to hear you're having a hard time finding a host. People find hosts quickest if they use search filters to narrow down their search, and write personalized couch requests that let their hosts know why they want to meet them. You can also create a public trip so hosts know that you are coming to their location and can offer to host you.
