While true, tenant protections are known in advance, this simply becomes a risk of renting property (Airbnb or long-term).

Everybody I know who owns rental property has dealt with problem tenants. It's a hassle. But, nobody should be buying rental properties without understanding how/if the local laws protect tenants.

And I'm guessing in many jurisdictions, regular rental laws apply to Airbnb, at least in part. As they appear to do in this story. This is, in part, why hotels have different regulations (though even then, guests have some rights).
