Dynamic Cleaning Fee

[Lisa7895]

I pay my cleaner more and use more supplies on cleaning fees for long term stays. I currently have my cleaning fee standard across all stays. Can I set dynamic cleaning fees, so anything over 7 days would increase automatically?

@Lisa7895 simple answer is no you can't. Either reduce any discount for longer stays or just accept higher cleaning costs are worth paying to get longer bookings.

A reminder @Lisa7895 , cleaning fees nowadays I gather from the hosting grapevine are a touchy subject with guests and some host have exceptionally too-high ones. In your case a $75 one for a $185 stay (2 days) is already hefty enough (40%), granted more palatable when it is say a 5-day stay (16%). A bummer can't adjust them according to length of stay. Good question, will ask on this next time I am with the 'grape pickers'. 🍇

You could NOT charge a separate cleaning fee and raise your rent a little.
You could also do a combination, lower de cleaning fee and raise the rent.
Or lower the discount for longer stays a bit.
Or be happy with a more extended reservation and accept the higher cleaning cost.
