Hotel room rates remain stagnant whilst Airbnb continues to grow in Thailand

Who gets that money, the customer or airbnb?
 

Air bnb of course. There will always be a a tiny risk with air bnb due to life circumstances. The host isn't a hotel with permanent staff 24/7

An emergency, to many to mention could mean the host isn't available for check in

If you don't like that risk then go ahead and pay a hotel room for a month at 4 times the price and a tiny space

Time to make AirBNB illegal until it coughs up taxes equivalent to VAT plus hotel taxes plus corporation taxes (or tax on turnover)

I applaud the visa regulations and the enforcement, keep the riff-raff out I say.

While I do agree, the problem comes when foreigners don’t realize that we’re all riff-raff to them. There is low hanging fruit riff-raff and there is riff-raff.

 

Either group can be subject to harassment and regulation changes at any time for no reason whatsoever, or simply because Somchai had a dream.
