I live in Krakow and I definitely see AirBnb as the culprit. Students are having a much harder finding housing than before. The situation in Europe is somewhat unique in that there's both a large disparity in nominal income and a large disparity in taxation of alcohol. The cost of a beer at a bar varies from €1 to €10. That creates incentive for people to fly out to places like Prague or Tallinn on the weekend just to get plastered. AirBnb, of course, caters specifically to these "tourists". Quality of the accommodation is unimportant when one's completely shitfaced.
