I'm a huge fan of AirBnB, it has made travel humane in ways no other business has. The bed and breakfast experience is one that I love and thanks to AirBnB there are thousands of more options for that experience or something close enough to it for my tastes. In addition I have loved almost all of the (activity based) experiences I've booked through the platform.
The key to me is that when I use AirBnB I really feel like I'm dealing directly with people, with the interested party who is passionate about and responsible for my experience. That's what their marketplace means to me. No hotel can provide that.
I know very well you have to look for this kind of interaction on the platform and there are plenty of uninvolved multi-property rent seekers, but I avoid them and AirBnB makes it possible to avoid them and for that I am extremely grateful.
