We started using AirBnB a couple of years ago when our daughter’s family outgrew her house’s ability to accommodate our visits, and there were no convenient hotels. It was an excellent experience, since repeated several times. We just got back from a Florida vacation trip and stayed four more nights at two AirBnBs, again excellent experiences. Initially driven by inability to find motel rooms in the Spring Break environment, these were nicer, cheaper and more convenient. Started looking into doing it with our own house - insurance etc. looked like obstacles we could get through, but discovered the county is in the process of banning the practice. As usual, punish the innocent to avoid dealing with the problem, and also protect the ‘connected’ from competition.
We use them a lot and have not yet had a bad experience —wish I could say the same for hotels which seem to be every month or so I get a bad one.
When we moved last time I was able to rent our previous house out enough on airbnb to cover some of the upkeep and it made a huge difference.
What I dont get is people who claim to be conservative/freedom oriented/small government who have such problems with people doing as they wish with their own property.
