About Corneroom

Hotels solve one problem. Corneroom solves the rest.

We are a global space-sharing platform that connects travelers with hosts who have space to share — not just beds, but any space. A couch for the night. A desk for the afternoon. A shower after a red-eye. A parking spot downtown. A boat slip for the weekend. Storage for your gear while you explore a new city. A nightlife table you would never get on your own.

Our Mission

To make every unused space in the world useful to someone who needs it. We believe access matters more than ownership, and that the best travel experiences happen when real people open real doors. Corneroom exists to connect travelers and hosts across 120+ countries through a single, trusted platform — one that treats a parking garage in Osaka with the same care as a penthouse in Paris.

The Problem We Solve

Travel infrastructure was built around one assumption: that travelers need a room with a bed. But anyone who has landed at 5 AM with nowhere to shower, or circled a foreign city block for 40 minutes looking for parking, or worked from a noisy hostel lobby knows the truth — travelers need spaces, not just rooms.

On the other side, millions of hosts have capacity going to waste. An empty driveway during work hours. A spare desk in a home office. A boat that sits idle five days a week. Corneroom bridges that gap, turning dead space into income for hosts and into access for guests.

Our Story

Corneroom started the way most honest ideas do — out of personal frustration. Our founding team were seasoned couchsurfers who knew the magic of staying with a local, but also knew the friction: outdated platforms, inconsistent trust signals, zero coverage for anything beyond a couch.

We built the couchsurfing experience we wished existed — verified hosts, real reviews, instant booking — then asked a bigger question: why stop at sleep? If we could connect a traveler with a spare couch, we could connect them with a spare desk, a spare shower, a spare dock. Every category we added unlocked a new way to travel, and a new way for hosts to earn.

Today, Corneroom spans seven space categories — Sleep, Work, Shower, Boat, Nightlife, Parking, and Storage — with more on the way. Each one was shaped by the travelers who asked for it and the hosts who made it possible.

What We Stand For

Inclusivity, Without Exception

Corneroom is proudly LGBTQ+ friendly. We enforce a strict non-discrimination policy for every host and every guest. If a space is listed on our platform, it is open to everyone — full stop. Hosts who violate this are removed, not warned.

Safety You Can Verify

Every host on Corneroom goes through identity verification. Listings are reviewed, ratings are transparent, and our trust system is designed so that the information you need to feel safe is never hidden behind a booking wall. We also maintain a 24/7 safety line for guests in any country.

Community Over Transactions

We are not just a marketplace. The best hosts on Corneroom are the ones who leave local restaurant recommendations in the listing description, who text you transit directions before you arrive, who treat a stranger like a neighbor. We build tools that reward that behavior because it is the reason this platform works.

Sustainability by Design

Sharing existing spaces is inherently more sustainable than building new ones. Every couch booked is a hotel room that did not need to be built. Every shared desk is an office that did not need to be leased. We track and publish our estimated carbon offset annually because we believe platforms should measure what they claim to value.

The Team

Corneroom is built by a small, focused team at Inspired Technologies & Business Solutions Inc., headquartered in Toronto, Canada. We are engineers, designers, and operators who have collectively traveled to over 60 countries — not as tourists, but as the kind of travelers who sleep on couches, work from cafes, and know what it means to need a space that does not exist on any legacy platform.

We are intentionally small because we believe the best products come from teams that use what they build. Every feature ships because someone on the team needed it on a trip. That is our quality bar.
