The hosts are the worst and deserve to be punished too. I'll be glad to see AirBnB gone.

You are playing a role in displacing renters/homeowners which negatively impacts the housing market.

You are gambling with your safety. I know several people whose unit was “robbed” during their stay. It’s very common. I mean, the owner can access the unit and so can anyone he gives access to. So can anyone who stayed there or anyone who knows it’s an Airbnb unit (which is likely to be empty during the day while you sightsee).

You should assume the owner or someone else is taping you. I was surprised to get a call from the owner on the condo landline at a popular beach town at a random time. He asked how I liked the condo—especially a certain item in the unit which I literally had just been commenting on to my husband before the owner called. That was the first and last time we used AirBnB.

With the Trump/Doge affiliation, I hope everyone boycotts.

Because they're quiet. I cannot handle hotels. Maybe if people were better behaved, but alas.

Your need to "do" Portugal or whatever so you can post pictures on Instagram about your vacation do not trump the right of people to be able to afford to buy homes in their own towns and cities. If you can't handle hotels (which is bizarre because I stay in them all the time and a little noise is nothing), you should not travel because you are ultra sensitive to regular human activity. Air BnBs are objectively terrible for the communities they have infested.
