Medium Term Rental - Room Configuration

My wife and I are converting our current primary into a medium term rental and I need some input. It is a 3/1 house in west Denver, CO. The current plan is set it up for 2 bedrooms and 1 office. It seems like with remote workers we could get more traffic that way. However, when I'm looking at comps on airbnb and furnished finder, it seems like I could rent it out for much more if it had 3 actual bedrooms (I have a master I could put a desk set up in too). The potential issue with that is it seems like most couples and friends traveling together (which is our current tenant pool we were going after) wouldn't want 3 full beds... Thoughts? How would you configure the house? Thanks for any feedback!

Caleb, have you looked to see if you could put a pull out couch in the office room? This way you get the appeal of an office space while still accommodating for another sleeping space. If the rooms are small this may not work but could be a way to target the crowd you're looking for. 

I would look to model yours off what the similar comps are at. If they have desks in a few rooms that may be a better strategy to go.
