Many Airbnb Plus lodgings. Seems to be quite the market to target.
fixedThey actually live in another flat in the area where both adjoining flats are used as AirBnB rentals, which they don't like (somewhatironicallyhypocritically).
Theres competition and they actually have to ship up or ship out. So they cry foul.So how is this any different from a few years ago when anybody could open a BnB? Only the booking platform has changed.

Same places that protested against Uber then and instituted restrictions on it.Lots of cities have restrictions on Airbnb, ranging from time limitations to owners requiring permits, though I think Japan in the only country doing it nationally.
New York, LA, San Francisco, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris all have various restrictions in place.
i wouldnt do airbnb, there is a lot of work involved continually dealing with different guests, bookings, cancellations - cleaning the apartment, general maintenance, breakages, changing linen etc.So where would you suggest would be a good place to invest in CT if one were to use it as an AirBnB ?
The restrictions are pretty random. Some are specifically set to protect the hotel industry, while others set limits on how long foreigners can stay in an apartment for, opening it up for locals to stay in it the rest of the time. There are also limits on the amount of income that can be earned, which would reduce property value if Airbnb guests can be charged a heavy premium over foreigners. This would allow more local people to purchase and live in their own apartments etc.So will the same restrictions be placed on hotels and traditional accommodation? They can feck off. If I want to rent out my place I'll do it how I see fit to whom I see fit.

There need to be restrictions to make sure property remains accessible to the people that actually live in the city.Lots of cities have restrictions on Airbnb, ranging from time limitations to owners requiring permits, though I think Japan in the only country doing it nationally.

This most likelyJust another unenforceable regulation that everyone will ignore.
But capitalism is badProtection of insane profits for a few to the detriment of the economy as a whole. Sounds about right for an ANC led goverment.
