Airbnb guest pitches a tent at host's front yard after host cancels the reservation last minute, spends the night there despite host's protests: ‘He left me stranded’

This story helped us decide, once and for all, what is better – an Airbnb or a simple hotel room. The answer? hotel room all the way.

Why? Well, because when you book a hotel room, there is no way for the reservation to get randomly canceled because the host doesn't feel like hosting. Generally, you get what you signed up for in a hotel room; no surprises, no weird hosts, and no need to deal with customer service.

How does this story teach us this valuable lesson? Well, this Airbnb guest was supposed to stay in a room in the host's house for one night. But when they got there, no one was at the house, and the host was nowhere to be seen. When the guest finally managed to get a hold of him, the host reported that he would not make it home that night and that he had to cancel the reservation.
