It depends massively on the local condition where you live, I guess. AirBNB just deliver the service. It's hardly their fault if not enough people signed up in your area. My typical experience in small towns where I live is that there is no hotel, or it's way out of town and clearly aimed at passing motorists. The same town might have 20+ AirBNBs, a mix of shared and exclusive. So that's where I stay.
