There are things that are built cheaply that look fine in photographs. Some things aren&#x27;t cheap but it is still clear they weren&#x27;t purchased by someone who intended to use them.<p>Airbnb photographs don&#x27;t reflect noise, the hardness of a mattress, and they often hide windows. Hotel reviewers are harsh, and these sorts of problems show up quick. I would venture to guess that the person to person nature of Airbnb, much like Linkedin, mean less honest reviews. Enough bad reviewers and hosts will exclude you.
