Isn’t that what a family owned hotel/inn is?

No, Airbnb typically lists actual, real everyday apartments, so you feel like you're living in the city like a local, not in a hotel. If you haven't tried it, it's a great feeling.

On the other hand, if you're in the same building as an AirBnB rental, it may feel like a hotel.

So, from me: please don't try it.

That's not the real selling point of airbnb, but rather that it's much cheaper than hotels in a similar area.
