Dear people,
Could you please look at my listing and give me suggestions so I can bloom more and make a good host.
Apart from the photography anything else that I can change or add to make my listing stand out, about suggestions would be appreciated. For photos I will upload professional ones very soon.

I am new too. I suggest contacting a super host. They may be able to offer better advice.
Hello Udita,
I’m reasonably new to hosting too (since March 2023).
Your place looks good and is in a lively, interesting area too. Pending the professional photos you mentioned, the apartment – aside from the bedrooms – looks dark as there doesn’t appear to be windows. So, unless there are windows and/or photos were taken at night, it may be worth increasing light? Not sure, of course, we all have different perspectives, and this isn’t meant as criticism, just my two cents worth of opinion. And if there are windows, it would be good to display them to show where daylight may be coming from.
On another note, you may want to think about fire protection such as acquiring a fire extinguisher and/or a fire alarm because you have a gas stove, and you allow smoking. I have both (smoke alarm and fire extinguisher), I live on the premises and rent one bedroom to guests, and still I find that guests manage to burn pans and pots, and which recently prompted me to be stricter on stove use, again for what it’s worth and this is more for your own protection, rather than make your listing stand out in some way. Maybe I’m just unlucky on that front.
Hope this helps and wishing you fun and prosperity with your hosting! 😊

Hi @Udita15
Congratulations on your listing. It looks very appealing. The photos do a good job of show casing the amenities.
One tip, your bathroom seems out of place. While other space is styled, the bathroom is not. Minor tips would be folded hanging towel(s) and a neat termination for the toilet paper. Perhaps even a plant or two. People are attracted to welcoming spaces. Do not overlook this fact in your bathroom. It is the one space that all guest will use.
Again, kudos and hopes for great success.
Ralph
