An App for That (and a Website, Too): Mister B & B Helps Locate Accommodations for the LGBTQ Traveler
An App for That is a regular feature at LGBTSr highlighting useful apps and technology tips for our readers. Have an app to recommend? Email me at: Editor @ LGBTSr.com
My husband Frank and I love to travel (we just did another two-night stay at Philadelphia’s Morris House Hotel, and had the best meal of the year at Talula’s Garden). I enjoy short getaways we can drive to, but we also like cruising and the occasional vacation that requires a dreaded trip to the airport.
I’m a hotel guy myself. I love waking up in a hotel, working on a laptop while I have coffee in the room or a public space. And while we’ve never stayed at an Air B&B, I know a lot of people use that kind of service. The market for renting out rooms and homes has exploded over the last decade, giving travelers more options that they could have imagined just a few years ago. Enter Mister B & B, a service that connects the LGBTQ traveler with friendly accommodations in the destinations of their choice.
misterb&b is committed to creating a world that is accepting and non-judgmental; a welcoming world in which you can share the excitement of discovery, and create lifelong memories and friendships.
Helping people make a personal connection, not only with the local culture but also with the local people, is how we give back to the global LGBTQ community. (Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans, Queer). Through our platform, we aim to create a shared sense of hospitality and respect.
Inclusivity is at the core of misterb&b, and is what helps up to continue to grow as a company. While the initial idea for misterb&b came from our CEO’s experience as a gay man, misterb&b recognizes the importance of extending its service of providing safe and welcoming stays to the entire LGBTQ community.
And of course there’s an app …
You can find a rental, as well as sign up and offer your own accommodations, at either the website or the app available from Apple’s App Store and Google Play. Give them a try and enjoy your travels staying where you know you’re welcome.
