    Hotels suck in comparison to renting a place. Renting may be causing other problems but it isn’t like they bring nothing to the table. If hotels didn’t want to lose out then maybe they should have stopped charging $300/night for a closet with a shitty bed in it.

      Yeah, lets hear you out when the residental house next door has new people in every week treating it as a hotel. Think of the average hotel guest you have experienced? Yeah that one EVERY week.

      Luckily my municipalityv/(Norway) will strike down hard on zoning violations if you run a commercial operation in a residential area.

      The initial idea was brilliant. Occasionally renting out a room in you house/flat. Or renting out a few weeks when you are yourself on vacation. But now that it’s businesses buying up housing and running them as hotels
