I'm an AirBnB believer - started using it about a year and a half ago in Turkey and Hungary. In the US, I've used it in Portland, OR, Spokane, Pensacola and NYC. All universally excellent experiences as a guest. I had a great customer service interaction as well, my host in Izmir worked for Turkish Airlines, and they suddenly decided to relocate him a week before I got there. Within a couple hours of his having to cancel my reservation (completely understandably, of course), AirBnB had refunded my money and given me something like $35 in credit for my trouble. I've hosted a couple of people, which worked well as I was the only place for miles in my small town, other than a house on a vineyard for $240/night, but I'm in the process of moving so I've stopped hosting for now. I explained to one woman that one of the paintings I had up was a self portrait by a fellow who would be 102 this year, if he were still around, who I considered a good friend. She proceeded to excitedly ask if he had fetal alcohol syndrome "because his eyes look weird"! I explained that, no, the painting was somewhat stylized and he didn't have fetal alcohol syndrome.
