Not everyone loved my garage Airbnb conversion

The bedroom should not be at the front door. The bed should be the furthest from the door. It shouldn’t have been that difficult to switch the bathroom and kitchen. I understand you wanted to make it easy, but as long as you have plumbing, it’s just a matter of changing pipes around a bit. So yes, I think it would make more sense to have the kitchen in the front entry across from the living room.

I’m a professional interior designer and the way I would lay it out would be the living room upon entering with the kitchen where the bed is now., and the bed where the kitchen is now. I would then add a door to the bathroom from the bedroom so there would be two entries to the bathroom. Of course this would be an additional plumbing cost.

I applaud you for taking on a project like this to create additional income for yourself. Most people are not going to care or think about it too much, if at all. Visitors want a nice clean private place to stay temporarily. Even though I’ve given a professional design opinion, I would walk in the door and think this place is really nice and it will meet my needs perfectly when I’m visiting. Most people aren’t going to be hanging out. They will be out exploring. I think you did an outstanding job and designing a space is forever a learning experience. Keep up that entrepreneurial attitude! You’ll have a steady stream of income from this place.
