Airbnb at-a-glance

Airbnb is a marketplace for renting space. Their open platform accommodates a 'couch to a castle', including vacation rentals, bed and breakfast, private rooms, and entire apartments. Travelers typically save money and get a local experience, while hosts have an easy way to earn extra cash and meet new people. Airbnb is a safe, secure, and reliable system that includes online credit card payments, rich user profiles, and user reviews. Launched in 2008 by three San Francisco based entrepreneurs, Airbnb connects people through peer-to-peer traveling in over 1700 cities around the world.
