    This will allow writing a message to the host and specifying the number of guests. The screen also has the information with the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and beds.

    The information includes the utilities, the pictures, reviews, and the host. This tutorial has Erica as the host, so there is the "About Erica" area. It says that the host, Erica, has been a member since November 2014, and that she lives in New York.

    The bar is the second from the bottom. Tapping this bar will bring up the profile of the host. There will be the picture of the host, the response rate (at 100% in this example, which is very good), a small overview of about what the host is writing, and other listings of spaces available from the host. There is also the number of reviews.
