    Despite reddit and Lemmy screeching, this shit hasn’t happened to me using airbnb and has happened often with hotels.

    🤷‍♂️

      Yes, but at AirBnB you have cleaning charge scams and hidden cameras in the bedroom. Pick your posion I guess 🤷

        Again as someone staying overnight 40+ days a year I find this to be extremely overblown and lacking in any real data either way but my personal experience is more than most.

        I think there was a small problem for a short while but was always overblown and was fixed relatively quickly.

        I’ve run into, if I had to guess 5:1 issues in hotel vs Airbnb 🤷‍♂️.

          Seriously. I’m a broke joke, but I live in a popular tourist trap where legit 1/3 of all houses are air bnb’s, and my mom visits over to twice a year with friends. When it’s just my mom, she stays with me, but they get an air BNB when coming as a group. The worst she has ever complained about was a $50 cleaning fee with instructions to take the sheets and bedding off and put them in the washer. If you’re charging more than $20 , you should be doing it.

          But other than that, it’s been pleasant experiences all around.
