Travelers choose to utilize an Airbnb instead of a hotel for a whole bunch of different reasons, but at the root of the choice, I think, is the experience you want to have in the place you are visiting.

You wouldn’t want to be friends with these 12 hosts, though, whose expectations go way above and beyond.
