I stayed at an AirBNB. Wouldn’t recommend it. There are definite
problems. Bad experience for me. I didn’t choose the place, another person did and I just had to pay a share. I didn’t save any money and the experience ruined the trip. I didn’t realize I had to stay with someone in their home while they were living in it, had to eat dinner with them, etc. The access to find out where it was located was poor, and the pictures and description did not match the experience. Had a work computer, so left after one night and checked into a hotel.
No idea what the insurance and liability was.
I don’t think I would want my neighbor bringing strangers into their homes constantly, probably zoning / covenant issues.
The lady was nice, making money in her home, but never again for me.
