If you want to be a local, stay at Trädhuset, Vetehuset-Plantera or Vetehuset-Skorda, Stenhuset, Åkerhuset or Skönhuset in Lindsborg.

@skift @airbnb could employ AI or other software to root out felons using an alias and an address of a FedEx drop off store with a POBox.

@airdna With @OwnerRez , I found that my non-ideal guest was a convicted felon and embezzler! @airbnb removed this guest. Since he uses a couple of #aliases, this guest may be back. @airbnb tells us that the #information that the guest provides is as good as it gets! 😬

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@WSJ Umm, great!? Anything for regular people with regular lives looking for a regular place to stay? There are millions of them. As one of those, I’d appreciate @Airbnb shining a light my way some day, week, month, year, decade.

@Jamie_Lane @airdna 🤞Wanna believe #SolarEclipse2024 will inspire #visitors to return to the #heartland (#midwest and #greatplains ) to visit cities and towns, large and small #anytime and #everytime - #travelling is much more than #beach and #mountains.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@chriselliotts Our short-term rentals are along Main Street and a couple blocks away in a neighborhood. Guests can prepare their meals in the kitchen or walk a few minutes to a restaurant, coffee shop or boutique. The city pool is open in the summer. We have pickleball paddles too.

@CBSMornings @jamieyuccas Please visit White’s Foodliner in @VisitLindsborg to interview their #sushi chef. Sushi + small towns? yes! @jamieyuccas visited nearby @GoMcPherson Kansas a few years ago.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@airdna Lindsborg’s number is 92 and Salina’s is 95! Where are these Kansas destinations on the list!

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@skift Luxury is where the 🤑 is, no doubt. Many of us in the hospitality community offer destinations and getaways that are much more affordable yet take the just as much extra effort. In other words, when looking at the luxury market, remember to turn around and see the rest of us.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@airdna Here in my small town in central Kansas, 15 out of 19 are considered “Guest Favorites” or 79%. This demonstrates yet again that these accolades from Airbnb break down at smaller destinations. Maybe it’s “Midwest Nice.” Maybe it’s that are hosts are superior in nearly every way.

Attached #photo, from background check, was for prior conviction. (More details available, but X has limited space.) @WSJ @usatodaytravel @nytimestravel @CNTraveler @thevrma @themattlandau @NerdWallet @MatadorNetwork @bchesky @jgebbia @skiftnews @rentalscaleup @SupportSTRs

Recently identified “opportunities for improvement” for @Airbnb ID Verification. My independent #backgroundcheck showed street address as #shoppingcenter. Second phone belongs to someone else. One #alias found too. If this can happen in #smalltownusa, it can happen anywhere.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@skift @Airbnb I’ll believe it when they embrace the Heartland.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@AirbnbHelp A guest booked with us but didnt follow rules so it was cancelled. @Airbnb ID has red shield w/check mark. His address is shopping center with @UPS store & other businesses (no residences). He has criminal record - I can provide mugshot. How did @Airbnb miss this?

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@Jamie_Lane @bchesky Like to see @Airbnb #experiences embrace Heartland / #artsy #smalltowns in #USA and frankly all 200+ countries https://t.co/Ta4Uo5PMKt

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

..."off-the-beaten path" destinations, especially smaller towns, with nightly rates not much more than the average for room only. These hosts need much assistance with defining properties for best category placement. Please review data and ponder! Thanks! @bchesky

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@Airbnb 2023 Summer Release highlights Rooms as new category. Searched "United States", clicked on "Filters" for each of 45 categories. Average room: $158; average house: $484 - 188% more. While cheaper, Rooms can still be pricey before fees/taxes. Overlooked niche (as always)...

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@bchesky Monthly stays seem focused on digital nomads in larger cities. In my small town, we have monthly stays for POTWAs: professionals on temporary assignments. They’re assigned to work at a manufacturing facility as a specialist or engineer.

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@bchesky Love to see features about hosts and properties in Heartland USA and other off-the-beaten path destinations in all 191 countries on Airbnb.

@OneDelightfulL @MidwestLiving @VisitLindsborg @J1Midwest @mwtravelnetwork @TravelKS @humanitiesks Tack så mycket too for writing about @VisitLindsborg in @MidwestLiving

[LindsborgVRs @LindsborgVRs]

@VisitLindsborg @MidwestLiving @OneDelightfulL Time to buy the Best of the Midwest for each of my vacation rental properties including Stenhuset - built in 1877 by Swedish stonemasons. #Bible verses in old #Swedish are carved into stone lintels above its windows.
