As tens of thousands seek shelter from the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles, the short-term rental site Airbnb has made free rooms available to evacuees and major hotels are extending discounted rates to displaced residents.

As multiple fires continue to spread through Los Angeles, Airbnb will offer free temporary housing for displaced residents.
