Least Favorite Parts of Owning/ Operating a STR?

I am certainly one of the bigger proponents of STR's, but I do think it is important to keep in mind that these are assets which require creativity, upkeep, costs, and a whole lot of TLC. With that said, I think it is important to highlight the pain points of Short Term Rentals that often get glossed over by new and experienced investors, or those looking to get into the industry. So I ask...

What are the biggest pain points of operating a STR? What are the unforeseen challenges that you have encountered ? What are the nitty gritty parts of operating a successful STR?

Feel free to bring others into the conversation!!
