This is a good lesson to learn the local phone numbers for emergencies...
911 in the US
999 in the UK
and, I just looked it up
112 in Spain...
If your cell phone is non-local, how to dial these numbers is also a good thing to know.
Beats texting mummy thousands of miles away...
The airbnb moniker is nothing more than a smokescreen for short term rentals. Many jurisdictions require licenses for short term rentals and some prohibit any subletting. These are not “bed and breakfast” places but short term rentals in desirable week or weekend vacation locations or locations where any sort of short term housing is scarce. Often the place is empty, the host does not live there. Here in rural VA the city people buy places specifically to list them for short term rental.
