We’re launching total price display to all guests to make prices simple and transparent. Now all guests will see the total cost of a stay before taxes upfront.
I only use it when I travel in large groups. At which point it’s really really nice. It’s private. It’s quiet. It’s cheap (per person). It’s more social. We usually also save money on food by buying in bulk and cooking.
Living next to a few short-term rentals, it is so extremely creepy to have various large groups of people in and out, staring at you and your stuff, blocking the street with Ubers and scooters, and you only think it’s quiet because you’re the house making all the noise.
It sucks to make a neighborhood a nice place to live only to have all that leeched for profit selling to bachelorette parties full of girls going WOOO at 1 AM.
I live in a neighborhood that regularly (as in, at least once, often more times a week) has people blasting concert grade speakers until like 4 in the morning, with revving cars, fireworks, gunshots, etc etc.
and thats from people who live there. no airbnbs.
Shitty people are shitty people. at least with an airbnb you have a chance at a break in the neighbors being dickheads.
I’ve stayed at a number of airbnbs and we’re very respectful of our neighbors. We basically treat the place as if we lived there, because that’s what we’re looking for.
Hotels suck:
no kitchen, just a microwave if you’re lucky
expensive for a small space
housekeeping - I don’t want strangers looking through my stuff
target for crime - cars get broken into a lot at hotels and motels
annoying check-in process, always seem to need to ask the desk people for something, etc
I just don’t like hotels. Maybe zoning could limit airbnbs to townhouse/condo communities or something that are all rentals, but give me more options than a stupid hotel.
Maybe hotels could just learn something from ABnB and offer some larger, more comfortable spaces with kitchens and 4-5 bedrooms? They’re all over in Vegas.
This. They help destroy housing markets.
further destroy housing markets.
investors are already doing their work, too.
while hotels and motels run at low capacity utilization

As usual, a few jerks ruin it for the rest of us.

Airbnb kitchens aren’t great either (dull knives, wrecked pans) but at least they exist.
They’re hit and miss, but yes, existing is the critical part here. I can make up for a missing/wrecked pan, I can’t conjure an oven.
Roll against your wisdom to not cast lvl 3 conjure gas line
If you fail your wisdom check You’ll need dex of 18 to not start a fire.
I don’t doubt it’s not great to live next to them.
That’s awful presumptious of you. Why would I think it was quiet if the noise was coming from inside the house? How does that make any sense to you?
