We’re launching total price display to all guests to make prices simple and transparent. Now all guests will see the total cost of a stay before taxes upfront.
Not quite hotel space as I have yet to find a hotel that can accommodate several families traveling together with a shared space, including a fully stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, parking, etc. There’s definitely a demand for something like this that isn’t filled in any other way.
In Germany it’s called “Ferienwohnung” where you can rent a whole house if you need it. This is going for decades before AirBNB, I’m sure there’s something comparable in other countries.
Never book flights through booking.com, they use a third party company called GoToGate who have the worst customer service possible and do not refund, and only try to charge for more.
Any alternatives? Especially European?
hotels/hostels?
Airbnb turns potential living space into hotel space and thereby helps driving up housing prices. The whole concept is inherently problematic.

Appartment hotels maybe?
Great point. Hostels seem very fun.
Booking.com they also have private hosts on their platform

HomeExchange looks good and is European.
It naturally lacks the depth of listings that Airbnb does but will grow if people use them
VRBO. Idk if it’s European.
