I will say that I've never understood the appeal of Air bnb. It's not always cheaper than regular inexpensive hotels, and I don't understand why people would be so eager to stay in the homes of total strangers. And even if regular hotels cost more, there are certain aspects that are assured. Like cleanliness. Like privacy. Oh, and not hidden cameras. What a novel notion.
