For Birmingham Airbnb and short-stay hosts
Give your guests a better Birmingham guide.
The Stay Guide Birmingham is a simple QR card you can leave in your apartment so guests can quickly find food, bars, rainy day ideas, date ideas, family plans and things to do nearby.
It helps guests answer the question: “What should we do while we’re here?”
Why hosts might use it

Useful for guests
