A standard external monitor is a step up from working off a laptop screen alone, useful for remote workers who don't need the "high-resolution" specificity of code 271 but still want a second screen for basic multitasking during a work trip.
When you open Airbnb's search filter panel, you'll see options for basic amenities like "Wifi" and "Pool." But for more specific features like Monitor, the filter may not appear at all — or it's buried so deep that most travellers never find it. Airbnb has assigned an internal amenity code to Monitor (code: 493), but their UI simply doesn't expose it.
This forces travellers into one of two bad options: read through every listing description hoping the host mentioned it, or book somewhere and discover the amenity isn't available after you arrive.
How CustomBNB Lets You Filter by Monitor
CustomBNB aggregates all of Airbnb's internal amenity codes — including Monitor (code 493) — and surfaces them through a simple, searchable interface. When you click the search button, CustomBNB generates an Airbnb URL with the amenity code appended, sending you directly to pre-filtered results on Airbnb's platform.
You're not leaving Airbnb's ecosystem — you're just arriving with your filters already set. CustomBNB requires no account to try, and takes under 30 seconds. For a deeper look at how Airbnb's hidden filter system works, read our complete guide to Airbnb's hidden amenity codes.

Tips for Booking an Airbnb with Monitor
Verify the Monitor before you commit
Airbnb amenities are self-reported by hosts. Before booking, scan the listing photos for the Monitor, check that recent reviews mention it positively, and read the "Things to know" section for any caveats. A filter match is a starting point — not a guarantee.
Message the host to confirm if it's a dealbreaker
If Monitor is essential to your trip, send the host a quick message before booking to confirm it's available and in working order for your dates. Most hosts respond within a few hours. Getting it in writing also protects you if there's a dispute after check-in.
What else to look for in the listing
Confirm connector compatibility with your laptop before relying on it, and check whether it's paired with a proper desk setup rather than just sitting on a side table with no ergonomic seating.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Airbnb have a Monitor filter?
Airbnb assigns an internal amenity code to Monitor (code 493), but it is not shown in their standard filter UI. The code exists in Airbnb's system and hosts use it to tag their listings — guests just can't access it through the normal search panel.
How do I search for an Airbnb with a Monitor?
The easiest way is to use CustomBNB. Visit custombnb.app, select Monitor from the filter list, and click "Search Airbnb." You'll land directly on Airbnb with the Monitor filter already applied.
Can I combine the Monitor filter with other amenities?
Yes — CustomBNB lets you stack multiple amenity filters simultaneously. You can combine Monitor with pool, sauna, beachfront, or any of 490+ other filters to generate a single Airbnb search URL showing only listings that match every amenity you selected.
Combine Monitor with Other Amenity Filters
One of CustomBNB's most useful features is multi-filter stacking. Select Monitor alongside any other amenity and CustomBNB builds a single Airbnb URL that returns only listings matching all of them.
