And with that, I think my time using Airbnb is officially over. Don't get me wrong, this is far from the only reason, but hotels are already basically the same price (often cheaper) and come with so much less drama and privacy issues.

I've got two trips booked on Airbnb over the next year, I'll probably keep both, but I won't be booking any future trips

how's your time officially over if you're still using it over the next year lol

Not booking any new trips? It's for the solar eclipse, and bookings in the area I want to see it in are already getting scarce, so no sense in missing out on that rare experience just to screw Airbnb out of $100 (or whatever their cut is)
