They're called Bed'n'Breakfasts. They're licensed. They're run by small proprietors. They pay taxes. And they're generally in the same neighborhoods as the AirBnBs. Oddly enough, it's almost as if "AirBnB" had them in mind. The price difference between an AirBnB and a non-air BnB is the difference in taxes and regulation. Period.AirBnB obviously fills a niche that needed to be filled.
