I have had a couple of excellent one month stays at great price with AB&B. However i have also booked them at great price with monthly discount to shortly after have it cancelled because price quoted on site isnt what owner actually wants for the property it can often be substantially more. Now if i am considering a 1 month stay i always check with owner that price is as quoted before booking.
I also contacted some Airbnb and asked if they could offer a discount for long term stays … don’t ask don’t get. They save on the change over costs so sometimes this worked fine.

I had similar but usually because they hadn’t correctly applied discounts for long term stays so suddenly you were getting huge percentage off. If that happened I chose somewhere else.

Currently 24-25C during the day this week and >20C in the winters too, which is why we don't need aircon or heating.
Add to that a 75% gov't rebate (for Canarian residents) on all flight to/from the Canaries to anywhere in Spain and those weekend trips to Madrid or Barcelona become a lot more affordable.
