Top 5 Tips for Great Airbnb Stay
Needless to say Airbnb is one of the “greatest disruptions” in this millennium. With the upcoming Initial Public Offering of Airbnb, we are seeing the monumental change in the accommodation / home sharing economy market. VRBO has been around nearly twice as long as Airbnb but is just a fraction the size of Airbnb, which is growing my an estimated 20 million guest every year. (see below)
We are PROFOUNDLY grateful for the blessings of being able host and help ppl share some peace and quiet that we have in SPADES at HSV.
1. LOAD THE APP!! I know .. you have too many apps already. PLEASE load the app. Most new users don’t think they should load the app, they will just reply when they are texted .. the reverse text message are blocked and the Caller ID is generic portal from Airbnb. Save the heartburn, LOAD THE APP.
2. Select Superhost when possible. SuperHost are reviewed EVERY quarter and must meet rigorous standards
They (we) have seen it all. 3:30 AM check-in’s, Everything from glowing Honeymooners to crying bereaved and grieving travelers staying over for a funeral. Superhost KNOW the area and know the things you want to do. Money well spent and the best insurance of a great stay.
3. Read the LOCATION.. the maps are many times wrong. Do NOT trust solely the map. One home near us uses photos of the lake and the MAP shows they are (correctly) NEAR the lake but the impression is that they are ON the lake.
They are not.
4. READ the reviews. There is no greater indicator of your future trip than the history of others. Read closely. Some ppl code things to be nice. While others got out of the wrong side of the bed.
5. Leave a review. The same programmers who helped to set up the Buyer / Seller ratings systems fro Ebay wrote the Airbnb rating module. Be frank, but not brutal. Share the things you’d like to know if you had not yet stayed there.
