Your site is a blank map with zero data points. How are you planning on populating it, other than "AirBnb guests will fill it out themselves" (which will never happen)?
Congrats for building something!!!
Too bad it feeds into the affordability crisis though.
On AirBnB hosts can record their internet speed and guests can filter for high speeds.
So what data are you collecting outside of what AirBnB already provides?
You should add hotels to the map.
I personally wouldn't want to use airbnb as accommodation anymore. I don't generally like hotels and like tye idea of airbnb, but in the end you overpay to have a bunch of extra rules and chores imposed on you, hotels have become cheaper (wild I know) and they make your bed. Hotels are often pretty awful with the internet though.
Side note: one thing I do like about airbnb is that it has really forced hotels to step their game up. When they were the only game in town they could just coast doing the bare minimum that the worst hotel in town was doing and call it industry standard. They're starting to realize they actually have to do what it says on the box, "hospitality", because they can't compete with a house on a lake otherwise.

Apart from knowing that an Airbnb has a good internet, I'd love to know / be able to filter for good office chairs and work setup. They do have the "dedicated workspace" checkbox but unfortunately this can be anything - from an office chair to a hammock with a desk.
Frontend needs work for sure, API issues also need to be solved, other than that it's a good idea as long as people actually start using it and the dataset becomes larger.
This is awesome! Would love to chat more, wanted smth like this for a long time! Your reddit user seems down tho? Email me at [username] @pm.me!
This is a really good idea. For years I've wanted to know:
- Which AirBNB hosts actually have a good "dedicated workspace". Criteria: at least a 30" deep desk, and a comfortable adjustable height office chair.
- Which AirBNB rental units actually have fast internet. Ideal in a perfect world: Let me ping their router, or somehow get the airbnb host to visit https://speedof.me or a similar site, then upload the results. (i.e. -- once per day or once per week, live wifi speed data from that Airbnb Host's rental unit is uploaded to a site where I can access the speed data publicly)
- (This one is more of a "local cafe" functionality) Which AirBNB rental units have a cafe with strong, reliable wifi within <toggable> distance. i.e. let me toggle a .5 km, 1km, 2.5km, etc radius. Show cafes within that radius as well as their wifi
