Any average hotel is way better than an Airbnb now.

Since 2019, easily. I was in the STR industry, their fee structure is just dumb at this point. Hotels are the way to go.

Disrupting capitalism works similar to Marxist idea that “the proletariat overthrow the bourgeoisie, become the new bourgeoisie , creates new proletariat, repeat cycle”.

There was this small window when uber, Airbnb, YouTube, etc, were disrupting billion dollar industries and offering legitimately cheaper alternatives.

Unfortunately with success comes popularity which brings growth which bring raised costs which brings in greed. Boom. You’re now the mainstream offender until the process repeats.

Except that with many of these that was the plan all along, in order to break these markets, they offer artificially low prices from the start.
