Surprised Airbnb doesn’t just do this themselves, though I suspect it might just be a matter of time?
Agree the one thing I really don’t like about Airbnb and why I still prefer hotels is the inconsistency of the experience from check-in to check-out. If I’m in a new unfamiliar city all I want to do is minimize the unknowns as much as possible and everything about Airbnb from key hand off to cleanliness to whether the listing is even real is a big question mark until you’re actually there.

Airbnb has gotten a lot of pushback for commoditizing spaces that would have likely been used as long-term rental properties. They very meticulously craft their brand and community relationships so as to avoid negative repercussions from operating in a city. This is an attempt to directly capitalize on the prime, long-term rental stock drained by Airbnb's presence without damaging the Airbnb brand.
