Hi @M GabriellaM. It looks like you are new to Local Guides and Connect, so allow me to share some information you may find helpful.
If you're looking for information on how to contribute great content (like reviews of a B&B as you mentioned) to Google Maps to make the most of your Local Guides experience, I recommend visiting About Local Guides. If you are a business owner, you may want to visit the Google My Business community as Local Guides is for individual members of the Google Maps community and not for business owners.
Here's some more information about Connect:
I hope this information has been helpful and I look forward to seeing more of your posts here on Connect!

Would I be correct in thinking that you are trying to add your own business to Google Maps, you are the owner of B&B La Finestra sul Lago Pigra? If so you need to be aware that you should not use your Local Guide account to do this, nor should you write a review for your own business. Organizations, brands and businesses are not eligible for the Local Guides program.
@TraciC can you confirm the rules for allowing holiday rental listings on the map? Some things are permitted, where staff are on site, in the style of a hotel naturally. How would this be considered: https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/4331245 ?

Hi @Pea,
Users can add vacation homes, as long as it has a permanent onsite management where users can contact them - there's more info here.
Although is allowed on Google Maps, under Google My Business policy owners of vacation homes are ineligible to claim it - info here
