As A host I am finding the AirBnB model to be more difficult to use with each passing day.
ABnB does not seem to trust their hosts. SAD!
ABnB systems are not good enough for ABnB to try to restrict communication between host and guest.
I have has 5 exchanges with a prospective guest and still cannot get a booking secured.
ABnB is being way too paranoid, this combined with their overbearing "Discrimination" campaign is boringand not helpful.
Relax AirBnB... loosen up. Trust your hosts. We hosts are your friends not your enemies.
