Holiday home rentals have been around way longer than AirBnB, allthough I do admit that AirBnB makes the rental experience much easier.

These days, lots of flats are still on other booking engines too such as Booking.com or HomeAway.

Yep, though in the context of this article AirBnB is just the biggest target. The problems that people are complaining about (justly) are no different if the short-term rental offered on Booking.com.
