I had 50% fewer bookings in 2023 than in 2022, even in the top season my place was half empty. It never happened before. All hosts in my neighborhood say they almost don't have any bookings from Airbnb but they are getting bookings from Booking. Others I've talked to say the Airbnb platform is not user-friendly for guests, the search feature is frustrating and
Several hosts I know have shut down their Airbnb listings for various reasons, including glitches with entering the required tax data (and consequently stopped payouts), useless customer service, constant changes and glitches to the platform, lack of guests, etc. so now they use other platforms instead.
Overall, it doesn't look good 😞
