Add label for renting out multiple bedrooms in one flat

It is understandable that people would like to rent out 2 or more bedrooms in their flat.

 

YET, Airbnb should create a special feature for this:in a 3-bedroom flat where the host lives in room 1, if you book room 2 as a guest, how do you know there's room 3 also for rent? If not specified in the listing, nothing says so, and Airbnb's T&C allow this !!!

 

Are you sure your stay is going to be safe? You get to know your host through the website, but how about the guest(s) in room 3?? Do you want to share with unknown people? They could be a terrorist too!!

 

I'm talking form a recent bad experience, which luckily has been refunded to me.

 

Airbnb, please add a special feature so that everybody knows, hosts and guests, if the room for rent is in a multiple rented-out bedrooms flat.

I agree with your idea, @Jean-Luc32 in that as a guest I would want to know if there were multiple guest parties sharing the space and such a designation in a search  model would help.  Not sure such a designation would protect a guest from another unpleasant guest, however.  Until then, you can see all the properties a host has listed from any of the listings you are looking at by clicking on "view all listings/properties".

Safety is surely an issue, but the main point is : you want to know who's gonna share the flat with you if there's to be more guests in the flat! It's about the community experience, not a random flatshare. 

Don't even mention that I have to check by myself if the host is renting out other rooms in the same flat.

Airbnb should address this ASAP, this is a major issue and will ever prevent me to use the app in the future.
