Airbnb imposes limits on rentals in Barcelona


BARCELONA: Homeowners in central Barcelona will only be able to rent out one place on Airbnb as part of new rules announced by the home rentals website, at loggerheads with local authorities. 

The new limits come as the popular Mediterranean resort struggles with ever-increasing numbers of tourists that are exasperating locals, threatening to drive out poorer residents due to a spike in rental prices and spoil the charm of Spain’s second-largest city.
