LOS ANGELES - June 23, 2018 - PRLog -- Lightr (https://www.golightr.com), the Los Angeles-based startup pioneering Space-as-a-Service for travel, today announced the beta launch of their luggage storage solution. The platform connects travelers, burdened by the weight of luggage when trying to move freely, to hotels in their destination to safely store belongings for short periods of time.

Lightr allows travelers with gaps in their journey to discover, reserve, and simply drop-off luggage to be collected at their convenience; providing a much needed and reliable solution for visitors with long layovers, day trips, and the growing segment of 100M+ short-term rental and Airbnb (https://www.recode.net/2017/7/19/15949782/airbnb-100-million-stays-2017-threat-business-hotel-industry) guest arrivals.

Users of Lightr's web and mobile platform receive the following key benefits:

• Multiple locations in gateway cities, providing customers with flexible options.
• Each location is accessible 24/hours to accommodate varying travel plans.
• Baggage is tagged, recorded, safely stored, with insurance coverage available.
• Updated and streamlined reviews from community of users, omitting having to dig through antiquated forums.
• Helping travelers get their day back, save time, and explore unanchored.

"Carrying baggage has never been a good thing," stated Mischa Armada, Lightr's Founder and CEO. "The idea was born following a snowy trek through the West Village after checking out of my Airbnb, with hours to kill before heading to my next destination." Armada added, "When I couldn't find the answer, I made one."

Lightr's focus is on key gateway cities, slated to launch its first locations in Los Angeles fall of 2018 in conjunction with the holiday season. Lightr will roll out its offerings and services to other major markets including New York, Miami, and San Francisco in 2019.
