I dunno, Airbnb used to be cheaper than a hotel, but now that 80 a night rental with a 150 a night cleaning fee is getting out for hand

[@Clarke1013]

and when you say 'for' you mean 'of', right?

[@naima8392]

I agree. I am nit to keen on using Airbnb.

[@novadhd]

[@annayureva5066]

Will take a hotel any time! Everything is working or taken care of, no cleaning fees, no cleaning that you have to do yourself, no need to cook, breakfast and dinner always available, no hidden fees, reception 24/7 and staff always there to help you immmediately! And booking is done within couple of mins. I always had great experiences with AirBnb but it was just too much hassle and I ended up too tired from living in a home and not in a ”always ready for you” spotless cleaned splace without having to deal with the owner’s abode quirks.

don't forget that you can cancel if necessary too

[@Taikun787]

I used to be an Airbnb believer, but it just doesn’t make much sense anymore for most type of trips. It’s getting so expensive, it’s easier and often cheaper just to get a hotel.

[@loranoodle]

Airbnbs hosts have raised their pricing to the point that hotels make more sense many times - which hotels are typically cleaner and nicer anyway. I’m not sure how one controls that but it’s off putting. Not to mention the fear a host will randomly cancel you.

She harassed me the whole time I was there with text messages. I was so traumatized. Writing for the first time publicly about it without getting triggered. Now I'm in a place and feel so safe.

I enjoy renting places in AirBnB superhost. As long as host are responsible and on top of things, there should not be any issue (major/minor).

[@shawnadyment]

It would be cool if AirBnB hosts didn't cancel reservations in order to book the space at a higher rate to someone else. That just happened to my brother when he came to visit Vancouver for a weekend, the host cancelled on him last minute and there was no other affordable option left due to so many events happening the same weekend, so he ended up vowing to never use AirBnB again and booked a hotel instead. I feel lucky that I haven't had that happen to me yet! But I am definitely wary now - and with AirBnB's charging just as much as hotels in some places, makes you think twice about using their service. I used AirBnB in off-season traveling in Italy which was nice but thinking about when it's high season for tourists, I feel like people will get cancelled more often.

[@cbbrosnaham3739]

Shawna, you are right there has been a huge problem with host cancellations and Airbnb has put a huge fine (really huge) and probably end to much of that challenge with cancellations by hosts. As a community leader with airbnb myself and superhost over 5 yrs. I think this will help many people like you and your brother with the fears of cancellations. I've never cancelled a guest in 5 yrs. But had several guests cancel. And they don't think twice about it. So I didn't know how big the problem had become until the new changes have just been brought to us all. I think you will be able to rest assured now, unless its a major unavoidable problem like the A/C crashing, a major leak or such there will be very few cancellations by hosts. all the best to you.

AirBNB is part of the pseudo sharing economy. What sets it apart from the traditional hotel market is that it has shifted the fixed costs of the business onto the hosts. As an example traditional taxi companies owned and maintained its cars which costs a lot of money. Uber shifted the fixed cost onto car owners which makes it a more efficient and profitable company that has put taxi companies out of business.

Many cities do treat Airbnb very similar to hotels in terms of zoning, service tax, etc

[@techcafe0]

@@lc9991x really, where, what cities zone for Airbnbs? No city in my country, Canada, does this, the Airbnbs are popping up like weeds everywhere, contributing to housing shortages and astronomical rents.

May I politely ask where you live? Asking for a friend… 🤣🤣

💯 % agree

[@floridaswampman7648]

Theres an Air BnB in our Neighborhood and the police are there every other night its a nonstop party house thats bringing crime to our neighborhood and dropping our home values. Pray one of these dont start in your neighborhood.

[@liechter]

Wouldn't dropping home values be a good thing as it allows lower income people to buy real estate?

@@liechter lol it's funny how some people are like "airbnb are bad! they make properties more expensive" while there's the completely opposite end of the spectrum that says "airbnb are bad! they make property values drop!".

4:10 how is that an Airbnb problem at all? It’s a law problem. Just stop people from being allowed to have guns in the first place.

Started good, then you went off the rails 😂

[@benjamindover4337]

Here's the problem. An apartment is $2k/month. You can make $100 renting it on a daily basis. Now the apartmet is $3k/month. Do you understand how this works?

[@pelokay1]

So before AirBNB what was the cause of rent being raised ?

[@auro1986]

can't airbnb, and wsj, do anything else except dragging you to recession?

[@MysteryKmt]

Hotels are better by far

This a millennials and Gen Z company, boomers don’t understand this lifestyle. It’s definitely going to be around for a while.

AirBnB is NOT affordable

[@pib4ever]

Not all hotels are the same price. Airbnb is affortable for every weekly business trip I’ve taken. Research

[@savannahm.laurentian1286]

I see no reporting on Airbnb & VRBO's impact on rental housing. "Hosts" are often wealthy & greedy.

Nope, Americans are doing day trips can't afford gas and utilities!
