Not a fan of Airbnb myself due to having lots of sketchy properties on that site, but most people who say they don't want it in their neighborhood always say that they are a lot of trouble.

I am lucky to never experience this before, so I am curious to know what's your side of the story?

And what do you guys think about ori Aibnb concept of couch surfing with live in owner? Would it be more acceptable?

In my neighborhood in Subang Jaya there's a double storey link house which is listed as a homestay or something . No idea if it's actually on AirBnB but its close enough.

Because it's a normal sized house in a taman, it's not attractive as a tourist accommodation but it's good for parties. Weddings (all 3 races also got) is most common. Some events are a hassle, cos they generate so many cars in the local roads.

But the worst one was the house was rented as a BN balai gerakan or whatever for the recent General Election. My god these guys are pricks. Simply park, rubbish everywhere, noisy till late night, obnoxious behavior. I think it was their operations center for 1 or 2 weeks.

I was so happy BN lost with a crushing defeat.
