I think we are seeing an "equalization" of sorts. When AirBnB & VRBO started, the rentals were cheaper than hotels (hence the popularity). That popularity and the attractive business model brought in tons of mom & pop investors, gobbling up real estate and driving prices up. Those higher prices/costs coupled with the high interest rates put the cost to rent an AirBnB on par with that of traditional hotels & motels. This kind of leveled the playing field.

IMHO, the only time an AirBnb works out is when it is a larger family type group.
