100 Airbnb Reviews – What I’ve Learned as a Host

Somehow, I blinked and this little Victorian in Sheboygan just hit 100 reviews on Airbnb. When I bought this house during the pandemic, I never imagined it would one day become a five-star stay for guests from all over. Hosting has been one of the most rewarding learning curves I’ve ever taken on — and reading every review has made me a better host (and honestly, a better traveler too).
To celebrate the milestone, I wanted to share some of my fave reviews and the Top 5 Takeaways I’ve learned from guests over the years:
1. People Love the Charm
First and foremost, guests consistently mention the home’s warmth and character. The original woodwork, tall ceilings, and pocket doors stand out in a sea of lookalike listings. It turns out that unique details really do make a difference — and create a more memorable stay.
2. Location Makes a Difference
In addition, being close to downtown Sheboygan and Lake Michigan is a major win. Whether guests are here for summer beach days, fall hikes, or just a peaceful weekend away, the location is always one of the highlights mentioned in reviews.
3. Cleanliness is Everything
Without a doubt, cleanliness is the number one priority. Nearly every guest has commented on how spotless the home is, and I’ve learned just how much that impacts the overall experience. A clean space instantly sets the tone for a relaxing stay.
4. Communication Can Set the Tone
Furthermore, good communication builds trust. Quick replies, detailed check-in info, and personalized local tips make guests feel welcomed and prepared. I’ve found that a little extra effort here goes a long way toward five-star feedback.
5. Little Touches Matter
Finally, it’s the small details that leave a lasting impression — things like cozy bedding, a stocked kitchen, or thoughtful design touches. These are often what guests remember most and why they choose to return or recommend the place to others.
I’m incredibly grateful for everyone who has stayed here — and even more grateful to those who took the time to leave a review. Your feedback helps me improve and helps future guests feel confident booking.
