The company has received huge appraisal from Business Insider and Wall Street Journal for its freewheeling company culture. Its services vary from $10 for a night in a couch in Brooklyn to $5,000 for spending a night in manse in 6,500-square-foot in Squaw Valley, California.
In less than three years, Airbnb has emerged as the easiest way for people to make money from their extra space, helping them showcase their property and possessions to an audience of millions. Airbnb, through various tutorial videos, helps people to learn professional photography so that they get the best snaps and videos of what they offer. Airbnb app is available for both Apple’s iOS and Android powered Smartphone and Tablet devices.
Brian Chesky has been rewarded as the best young tech entrepreneur by Business Week, and enlisted among the top 30 under 30 enterpreneurs by inc.com.
