In the last 12 months, Airbnb has more than doubled in size in Africa, and the company is now on a drive to grow this presence further.

The article is a bit vague, but here is a better definition

Airbnb is a website for people to rent out lodging. It has over 1,000,000 listings in 34,000 cities and 190 countries.
Founded in August 2008 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, the company is privately owned and operated by Airbnb, Inc.

Used in the past.. thus far it seems more for BNBs but mostly in main cities
