I've never heard of it before, but will definitely try it next time I'm out of town.

Glowing reviews from users here, and it sounds like their insurance will assist the homeowners properly.
Yeah, it really is a good system they have and AirBNB got on it right away and turned a potentially disastrous PR situation into a win. Having said that, they make money hand over foot. Covering the $50,000 is nothing for them even without the PR boost.

It's really too bad that Ontario and Quebec have made it pretty much illegal to rent under AirBNB.
