I wonder if any of the tourists who came here last summer, and complained about staying in very uncomfortable, un-airconditioned AirBNBs during the heat wave, will be back.

@EmilyG – I wonder if they will learn anything about the underground economy? Or do you think that bottom dollar is all they care about? You saved money… but ruined your vacation. It must be AirBnBs fault… right?
@Kate – From my experience, dealing with Chinese visitors can be quite difficult. They are best suited to the big hotels as they tend to “pack” rooms and can be loud versus our culture of hushed tones in shared spaces. They also tend to prefer modern and new versus antique and old-world charm.
PS: Packing rooms is not just illegal, it’s dangerous. The hotel is responsible for knowing how many people are in a room in the case of an emergency. The fire department when told that there are 2 people in a room… stop looking after they find 2….

Eh, I have no horse in the AirBNB race.

@EmilyG – More of a general comment…. but something you learn as you get older and the mattress can make or break your vacation.
