> people hate hotels
Other than mandatory fees not displayed in the advertised daily rate, I have never heard of people hating hotels.
Airbnb listings also have mandatory fees not displayed in their advertised daily rate.
My understanding is that Airbnb took off because it was cheaper than hotels (however in general, that may not be the case anymore).
I think *people hate costs more than they hate services* (which is how airlines like Spirit and Ryanair have managed to do business).

- creer 1y agoI feel both Airbnb and hotels.com and such took off because they offer discovery. It was always possible for individuals to offer rooms. And they did. And it was hard to find them.
