I've no idea why but the AirBnB model really doesn't appeal to me, for concerns that follow this issue. I fear ending up at some crazy person's home who will treat me like this home owner did - but in person when I'm kind of trapped at their house. Having grown up in an expensive city to visit (London) I can see the attraction for AirBnB in cities like London, NYC and SF but I would still take a carefully researched price negotiated/discounted hotel room over staying on someone's couch who I didn't know.
