Anyone Have Experience With Vacation Rentals Via AirBNB.com or VRBO.com?

I have a triplex property where one of the units is a small one bedroom attached to the main house. I was originally going to lease this unit as a regular rental but instead I'm now thinking of going the www.airbnb.com or www.vrbo.com route and rent it out for a few days or a week to travelers coming to town. Living in a destination city as I do and near downtown makes me think that this might allow me to bring in more rent than I would just as a regular rental. I know it's more work but how much more I've yet to find out. Anyone have experience to share?
