And people wonder why Airbnb is taking off like it is. The hotel industry is a cartel.

I hope Airbnb stays A Good Thing™ for a long time. I fear with its high valuation that it will only last so long, before sweeping changes are made that make it no longer worth it.

For now, I'm going to ride the train to the end of the line.

DISCLAIMER: I am an Airbnb host, but not in Cali.

Then why are Airbnb rentals in SF more expensive that in other cities? Hint: they all charge what the market will bare.
