It seems that many travellers are growing tired of holiday rental giant Airbnb. Once lauded for its convenient service and unique accommodation options, focused around staying in the homes of real people, the booking website is now facing criticism for encouraging overtourism in many hotspots and drifting away from the original ethos of the company.
In fact, the Spanish government has ordered Airbnb to remove almost 66,000 holiday rentals from its platform citing they violate local regulations and contribute to Spain’s escalating housing crisis.
