GMH EU: Airbnb’s Cancellation Policy, Funding Startups & STR Growth

This week, we welcome Boris Pavlov as our first guest host on Good Morning Hospitality Europe with Leo Walton & Sarah Nan DuPre! Boris shares insights from his journey in the short-term rental industry, from scaling a management company in Eastern Europe to launching Flataway, an OTA for professional property managers. We dive into Airbnb’s latest cancellation policy changes, exploring their impact on hosts and guests. Boris also breaks down the realities of fundraising in the STR space—whether through VC, private equity, or crowdfunding. Plus, we discuss the rise of serviced accommodations in London and how property management companies are adapting.
