During certain sport season, it would definately be a plus point if hosts have subscribed to a paid for sports tv channel and would be watching the match throughout the night in his converted garage sports bar with his boisterous mates cheering on..... having a sports fan badge is also a good idea.
As more and more hosts are joining the platform, having a little special highlight that could be filtered out would give guests more selection and a happy stay don't you think ?
Coming back to the point, Air BnB should also give the hosts a more wide variety of options like vegetarian , vegans, or special food requests, maybe even religious background.
More options to allow our special guest to choose.
Would a guest who is vegetarian because they love animals be holding back from lecturing their host when the host brings home a fresh piece of bloodied meat from the butcher meat to cook ? I personally know people who are vegeterians who would only go out with friends who are similar.
Would a guest chose a house which has pets living in it knowing they are allergic to pet dander?
Hence a LGBTQIA guest may like to choose a host that have this badge or then again may not care and choose homes because of pricing or location
what is needed is to give a few more options and choices for our guests to choose from (ie , add on to airbnb list of options, kid friendly, airconditioned, near transport, off street parking availible, swiming pool availible ...... and hopefully "LGBTQIA friendly).
The choices or highlights are really not exhausting lists.
