The most visited Airbnb in the world is a small wooden cabin near San Francisco.
Located 80 miles south of the city, the small home measures just 100 square feet, but has been incredibly popular with vacationers.
The mushroom-shaped cabin was first listed on Airbnb in 2009 by owners Kitty and Michael, and was one of the first properties to be listed outside of a city. Since then, it has had nearly 1,300 reviews from guests who have given it five stars for cleanliness, value and location.
