In France, tenants have found a dead body in accommodation they had booked via the Airbnb portal. When the tenants entered the apartment in Hoenheim, north of Strasbourg, they discovered the lifeless body of a man aged around 40.

The deceased was reportedly a friend of the owner of the apartment.

Although the cause of death appears to be natural, an investigation has been opened. An autopsy is to be carried out in the next few days to clarify the matter.
