Air BNB vs Straight Rental

[Patrick Gledhill]

So I just wanted to see some feedback on this. I have been renting out my primary residence basement and recently had a vacancy and tried air bnb this week. I had a surprising turnout, it was booked for 4 out of the 5 days I made it available. But in my opinion what a freakin PAIN! So much work. I have a full time job, luckily I am able to go home and take care of some of the check in check out stuff. Cleaning after every guest. Worrying about reviews... And if I were to outsource cleaning and management the profits would be drained. Unless I scaled it across multiple properties that are in the same location... I have a regular rental lease signed for April 1 and I am very much looking forward to this compared to the Air bnb. because it will be on autopilot. Am I looking at this wrong?  Or does anyone else have insight on this?
