    Value proposition isn’t there anymore either, airbnbs used to be super affordable but now match the price of hotels and if they don’t are in inconvenient locations.

    Not to mention the impact it has on local housing supply and pricing.

      Pricing is still relevant, at least in Europe (from my experience). I’ve done a lot of low-budget traveling with small groups of students in France this year, and AirBnB was (unfortunately) consistently and significantly less expensive than hotels.

      Also, many hotels don’t give you access to a kitchen, which really sucks if you don’t want to spend money eating out every day.

      Unfortunately, the pricing still makes sense for larger groups of people.

      There are far too many of these leeches taking up valuable housing in the most desirable part of my city
