What are some issues with homestay services like Airbnb? And what’s being done to address them?

This hour, we hear from travelers about their experiences with short-term rentals.

We'll hear from an attorney representing clients with complaints about Airbnb.

And later, we learn how these short-term rentals impact the housing and rental markets in our state.
