What you're looking for is perfect for a homeowner or someone that wants to live there, but all those extra amenities (doorman, etc) are too costly for you to make any profit. 

Every nightly rental review that has one, is only positive and they usually have 100s of reviews(at least the only ones I can find).I wanted to stand out in my market, while checking the box of "hot tub" since it's a standard amenity now. 

Our average daily rate(ADR) is high for our STRs, and we provide many amenities to cater to a more luxury clientele, but because of that guests have very high expectations when they book.

For rent by the room, you want to be where young people would like to live, which is as close to amenities, nightlife, and jobs as they can get.

Amenities include a pool, spa, big covered deck, fishing pond, hiking trails.

If your design/decor/photography is top notch, are there other amenities you can add that the top properties have that you don’t?

Quote from @Jakob Mikhitarian: Loved*      Amen. 

I would also make sure you get professional photos that showcase your property and its amenities.

You'll also want to partner with a knowledgeable realtor in planning the exit to help you understand what features/amenities/whatever are important in the rehab and which arent, as well as what an expected ARV will be.

Is he amenable to cash for keys?
