    Ideally, we’d be able to have a healthy mix of hotels either in or near city centers and short-term rentals for maybe tourist destinations that are away from the center, with a hard limit on how many AirBNBs and hotels can be existing at a time. The idea sounds nice on paper, at least.

    Adam Something made a video on how awful AirBNBs are for locals, and the same concept applies to a lot of places where it’s mainly hotels in the area.

      Agreed.

      In my opinion, this is an area where local governments need to step in and regulate, otherwise the industry can be disastrous for local homeowners.
