I keep wondering this myself. I've never used one because I just don't get the appeal. I assumed people used it because it was cheap, and I didn't mind paying more for a hotel...but then saw it's even more expensive than a hotel!

Hotels pamper you, clean your room and towels daily, often have food and alcohol, often have shuttles to take you around, great locations, etc. AirBNB has none of that. I have to be missing something?

This seems to be increasingly not the case between the pandemic & low unemployment (and the long-term trend towards running laundry less frequently to save on water), but I've always preferred to not have them in my room while I'm there.

The appeal for me is that I prefer to have my own kitchen to prepare most of my own meals while traveling. Cannot do that in a hotel room.

I think several years back, AirBnb was cheaper than hotels (but they've gotten more expensive over time).

The ones I was in last year were considerably cheaper than the hotels, other than the hotel rooms that were actually multi listed as Airbnb since there is a merging of those now...
