STR by room - guest safety & interaction

Hey BP team,

I have several Airbnb's that I run in Saint Paul MN and I'm looking to actually do more with a 4-plex that will house medical professionals traveling in on contracts for 30-90 day leases (technically outside of STR being >30 days). I notice a lot of these medical professionals are looking for an economic stay and would rent a room to save some money during their contract term.

My question is this: If I'm renting by the room, but I'm not present on the property - how can I manage guest interaction and set up some layers of safety checks/balances? Can I put a security camera in the common areas that would be recording and could be referred to if there was an incident (clearly marked and disclosed to guests)? Obviously, lock's on bedroom doors for privacy and some clearly defined "house rules" would be a must. What else?

Tell me the best way to remotely manage STR by room.

Thanks!
