in huge blow for platforms like Airbnb

I hope its true, but the spanish goverment has a long history of promising and not delivering.

“Wait, what happened? We were making money. Oh, our country has been broke for a while now? Well, can we call the cruise ship guys?”

Multinational corporations that operate hotels like this 👍

Yeah sure airbnb will be affected but i dont believe the blow to them will be as big as for the homeowners in Barcelona who offer their homes for rent through airbnb

Airbnb will do just fine without Barcelona. Not even sure they will notice, to be fair!
