Airbnb and its clones, although initially introduced positive disruption, are turning entire city districts into alien tourists traps. The range of "services" and prices there make long term inhabitants to stay away. Barely anyone with local salary can live there. So we end up with attractive historical districts with predominantly temporary rentals which are completely empty out of the season, and dull residential districts where people earning local salaries can afford to live. I'm talking from my observations in various EU cities (Berlin, Prague, Barcelona).
