Does anyone have personal experience turning your property into a rent by the room with pad split?
I’m a little skeptical of taking reviews from the company itself if you know what I mean. After doing some research, ...

It is a great advantage to the guest and also the host to split the stay into several payments.

I created a co-hosting profile as I was looking for additional opportunities.

I am very interested to see experienced host's perspective.

And then the personal page host is listed as co-host.

I got the idea when I traveled overseas and my hosts offered free Netflix.

But to answer your question why you still see so many active STR's on Airbnb in a restricted area, it could be a couple things: It could be a "hosted rental" meaning the homeowner is there and is just renting rooms on Airbnb.

Feel free to ask any questions here in the forums and I'm sure some of the amazing hosts in here will be able to help at anytime.
