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

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.

    Airbnb kitchens aren't great either (dull knives, wrecked pans) but at least they exist.

    Yeah, let the people that can't afford to buy a house deal with them. The poors are used to living in shitty neighborhoods already, right?
