I guess even that kind of surprises me, unless Columbus is particularly expensive, but I suppose that sort of justifies the author's point. Should there be full houses on AirBnB for multiple weeks at a rate very favourable compared to a typical mortage?
- ericmay 5y agoColumbus is cheap compared to many places but not super cheap. It’s more so that’s just the going rate to rent a house that allows dogs for a few weeks. Go look at what a hotel costs each night. If they rented for 21 days and paid $5,000 total, that’s $250/night which will get you a decent hotel in Columbus but no dogs, no yard, living in a hotel versus a house… So I’d say the price is about spot on for what I’d expect.
- a2tech 5y agoExactly--during the pandemic we've gotten used to traveling with our dog and can't imagine leaving him behind anymore. Its crazy how expensive places are when you bring the dog. And we want a yard and clothes washer.
- brailsafe 5y agoYa I don't have one, so that's a world I'm unaware of, but normally just sleep in a car or something anyway and skip renting a room entirely because it's too much.
- brailsafe 5y agoHotels are expensive, goddamn.
- ericmay 5y agoYou can get a cheaper one and you can actually negotiate long-term rates too. But yea generally they’re not that cheap especially b/c the price shown never includes things like occupancy tax and “resort fees”.
- dorchadas 5y agoHonestly, there shouldn't be full houses/empty apartments on AirBnB period. All that does is eat up local supply and force the externalities onto locals of the area, screwing them over for (in most cases) tourists. Like pretty much everything AirBnB does.
