esMazer··on The Hotel Industry’s Plan to Combat Airbnb
to be fair, you are not renting a hotel room, you are renting someones home or room (in most cases). I see it as a way to build trust. Is a complicated situation... if a host chooses to discriminate me from staying at their home because of my race/age/sexual orientation I wouldn't really want to stay there anyways. Is it right? absolutely not. Is it against Airbnbs rules? YES. Will they be banned if they are caught? you bet.

there have been a few instances however as far as I know airbnb have handled this instances by banning the Host for life

Although I do not read hundred of reviews per stay I'm very picky and only choose the best.. this way I have stayed in multiple countries and have had very few issues with Airbnb.

To be fair with Hotels you also have to do your work and read the reviews.
