Airbnb

Following the joint action of the CPC authorities, Airbnb improved its presentation of prices in order to ensure that, whenever properties are offered, the consumer is provided with the total price inclusive of all the applicable mandatory charges and fees. Moreover, the company agreed to improve the fairness of its terms of services and to distinguish professional traders from private peer hosts.
