Extended stay cleaning

Hello,

I just started hosting last month so I'm not to sure if I did the right thing.

 

The current group I'm hosting initially booked for only a week. I'm hosting 6 men that travel for some type of labor work.

 

Before their stay was over they requested another 7 day stay and I agreed. They are due to leave this Friday and I was told they may stay for another 7 days again. They are asking if anyone would be over to clean. I replied saying that if they would like a cleaning I could have someone out to clean but it would be an additional cleaning fee since the initial cleaning fee charge was for the initial booking and didn't take into consideration the long term stay. 

 

Does this seem like the right move or what would you guys do in this situation?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @Jorge2801 

Your suggestion seems fair, but when you quote, keep in mind that having a reliable cleaner come in at this point may be just as much to your own advantage. It can potentially be a very big job to clean after an extended stay by a large group, so you may be doing yourself a favour by getting some of the work done before check-out (especially if you have more guests on the way!).
