Seems like I wasn't clear. By commercial I meant something more than an individual with a business license, something more along the lines of a hostel experience where there is a lobby and staff like a security guard.
- amscanne 10y agoThat would be a _responsible_ commercial enterprise. This property (and many other AirBNB) properties are commercial, but effectively skirting all regulations that would normally apply. This specific house was rented and a massive party thrown where someone was shot. Hostels and hotels spend money (e.g. security) to ensure the environment is safe and this kind of thing doesn't happen. AirBNBs can be responsible, but it means things like actually renting spare rooms, having someone nearby (you or a neighbour) meet guests and keep an eye on things, etc.
