Sale of Owner Occupied House with Rental Rooms and Capital Gains

I'm selling my principal owner-occupied house where I have been living since 2000.  The past couple of years, I've been renting out rooms in the house through AirBnB.   Rooms are normally rented for short term.  Can I use my $250,000 home sale tax exemption?  Please explain.  Thank you for your assistance.

If you've been taking depreciation deductions, you have a recapture event.
