A Smoke Detector for Sound - Airbnb Simplified!


After Rezfest Las Vegas there was so much to catch up on and research! One company stood out among the rest, NoiseAware. I made the decision to try the product after discussions with current clients of theirs at RezFest. Decided to order a few and test it out. 


The Devices arrived in a timely manner, nicely packaged with simple instructions. Shortly after the horrific Mandalay Bay Route 91 Harvest festival shooting took place and precedence over all else. We were dealing with an onslaught of instant bookings from people leaving the strip and cancellations from people who decided to cancel their trips. Soon after all airbnb records were collected and submitted to the FBI. Turns out the shooter had stayed in MY building during the Life Is Beautiful festival the week prior. During this period the FBI was in the building, national press outside chasing residents and guests were arriving to a building in upheaval. The building came together and worked to abide by new rules with considerable new hoops. Airbnb hosts from around the world called and asked me to walk their guests to the units, things weren't the same around here. I have more than a handful of units in the building and have for nearly 4 years. Over that time extensive discussions paved the way for the allowance of Airbnb by HOA and residents.


People were scared and Paddock was dead so people pointed at airbnb. Clients applying for licenses to operate their bnbs legally here in the building now have some new residents opposing it with passion. When faced with the question of what we could do to show we were going the extra mile only one word came to my mind NOISEAWARE


Within 24 hours the NoiseAware real time noise level testing and alerts were installed and kicking out readings. The homeowners loved it and the city council when offered as our proof of not negatively affecting neighbors we will tout our NOISEAWARE readouts. I'd suggest installing a NoiseAware device in anywhere applying for short term rental licensing or by anyone wanting a some peace of mind.

Trashy Admission

  The trash thing is the downfall of the majority of HOA community airbnbs. Ive tried hiring people to drive the loop each trash night, I've tried hiring a neighbor to take it out and back for $20 per week and had ok results. I've even thought of a share economy app i'd call Curbie. Ive tried hiring people off Offerup and craigslist who claim trash and waste disposal. Looked into the extra pickup per week service on the official waste management website as well as frequently getting extra bins to the home. Of course we put stickers on the trash bin, in the welcome book and even direct airbnb messages, text messages, phone calls. The housekeepers are supposed to upload the photos of each room and trash bins.  Even with all this and my personally driving to some they don't make it out or don't make it in. Id say only 5% of people tie trash bags. Missed for a week or two and its offensive. Morning walkers catch on quick to the static olfact...
