    Hi there

    does anyone know about the Minut noise device installed in some Air bnbs?

    how sensitive are they?

    would they detect a gathering of 10 people with some music playing?

    thanks

    They pick up number of devices, so Fitbits phones etc will note number of people. The host obviously doesn't want gatherings nor parties so why book somewhere that has a risk of being asked to leave if you are in breach of the t&C's.

    Yep! plus anyone with one usually has CCTV on the entrances and exits to the unit. If they do have CCTV it will be listed in the security section on Airbnb.

    These types of devices have multiple methods of detecting larger volumes of people (temperature rise, humidity rise, increase in bluetooth/wireless MAC addresses, noise leve, etc etc). Its very likely they will detect a gathering

    If looking to rent somewhere for a party, find somewhere that actually rents for that purpose.
