New airbnb beds

Evelin Negrete

This might be a weird question but I am starting my first Airbnb, I am wanting to fit as many people as a I can in a 3 bed & 2 bath, 1,200sq ft. I am wanting to put 2 full beds in the master bedroom and a queen and the 2 other rooms. People are telling me it’s strange to put 2 beds in the master bedroom. Should I put 2 beds or just one ?

Let the master be for the adults/parents. Put a king in there. Then a queen trundle in another and a bunk bed in the third.

And I'd re-examine why you you want to squeeze as many people as possible into such a small house? The old 'heads-in-beds' concept does not always make financial sense. Yes, you might make more gross income....but when you factor in the added wear and tear, repairs/maintenace, and increased cleaning fees....are you really netting more money? Probably not.

Consider adding amenities to attract guests and raise your prices to fit that level of quality, but keep your guests number limited to less. Of course it depends on the type of guests you expect (or are trying) to attract. Does the area cater to families or couples? Check your competitors on the VRBO/AirBnB platforms and see how they have their houses set up.

Just my $0.02.
