I have had only really good experiences in Couchsurfing so far. What I enjoyed the most is the social diversity of the people that hosted me, some were living in rich houses, some in homemade houses, others in truly modest appartment. But what they all had in common was their kindness and wilingness to share something with me something else than just money (may sounds a bit cliché, but that's true).
