Has anybody Airbnb-ed half of a duplex?

[Mike Day]

I have a duplex in Indianapolis and am considering renting half of it on Airbnb--reason being, I need a place to stay when I'm in town, but would like to Airbnb it the rest of the time, while having a long-term tenant on the other side. Has anybody done this? It seems like a good idea on paper. My concern is whether the Airbnb guests tick off the long-term tenants by making noise or creating problems. If you have actual experience with this, I'd like to hear it.

Feedback?
