I spend a good bit of time in Bangkok and AirBnb is excellent - there's an (over)abundance of luxury condos available for $25 per night.

> what is the primary motivation

After a while, all hotels kind of blend into each other. With AirBnB it feels more like assimilating than visiting - you're living where the locals live. Plus each place you stay at comes with its own personality.

Plus while hotels are often confined to a particular part of town, I can get an AirBnb is some obscure part of the city to use as a launchpad for exploring.
