I have used AirBnB a fair amount, including for travel in Europe. Sometimes great, sometimes just fair, but never had a bad experience.
Used it in 2014 to rent a number of places in our trip through Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia.
Stayed in a place in Mostar, Bosnia, near the famous Old Bridge, that had an absolutely fantastic view of the bridge. Right on the river, and closer to the bridge than the pictures you will find of it on the internet. It was about $20 a night. Utterly unbelievable value.

My son’s friend booked an AirBnB for an out of town bachelor party for my son and four friends. The place was advertised as being able to sleep five. They arrived to find out three of the beds were children sized.
Funny you mention Slovenia. That’s a place I’d like to visit, along with Venice. If I ever set foot on an airplane again.
