It is a common frustration people with disabilities share when traveling: from trying to find an accessible rental car, to transferring into your seat, to praying that your motorized wheelchair isn’t damaged as it’s thrown into storage. All you are thinking is, “Please get my belongings and me to my destination, in one piece.”
What if finding lodging at your destination is just as taxing as the process to get there
A recent Rutgers University study found that prospective renters who identified themselves as having disabilities were more likely to be rejected by hosts using the popular Airbnb website. Airbnb classifies itself as”a trusted community marketplace for people to list, discover, and book unique accommodations around the world online or from a mobile phone or tablet.”
