It's a nice idea, but if the rest of AirBnb is anything to go by, it'll very quickly be filled with generic experiences that cut costs and under deliver.

I've had some great times staying at AirBnbs, but over time the ratio of good to bad/average is sliding fast.

I've had good experiences with professionally written descriptions and not going too cheap on the price. Any straying and it's very hit and miss.
