I've had this request, but I always say no.
• they now have the exact address
• you're not covered by airbnb insurance policy if something happens
I usually ask if they would like additional pictures of a certain area / videos, etc.
After I suggested VERY POLITELY, alternative ways of viewing the apartment before commitment (which I understand for long-term stays), the guest just stopped responding.
I'm sure there are people with good intentions, but given that I would be living in the house as well, it was a safety concern.
