I found the article you link to fascinating and depressing in equal measure.
I’ve used AirBnB in both far-flung destinations as well as here in the UK for short breaks. Bar one cancellation, all my bookings have turned out well.
If I was arriving late at night, or very early in the morning, I would probably consider booking a hotel for the first night / day.
I guess you need to do as much research as possible, have a plan B in place in case things go wrong and simply hope for the best.
