Therefore, people on Airbnb should avoid longer stays, Guests tend to spend more time in the property then with short stays, ergo more use of utilities and ware & tear with no lease other than Airbnb protection which is more miss then hit
I dropped my prices by 40% and Walla, I start getting request for longer stay, I usually never look at people profiles but in one case where there was no picture and his name was "P" I decide to have a look, boy was I glad I did, apparently in his previous booking, he requested the heating be turned up to 27c (80.6F) which with my 3.12m (10ft) ceiling would be astronomically expensive.
Some person mention ware & tare with regards to your pots and pan, the next guest who goes to use them won't be as accommodating in their view and may even refuse to use them!
My maximum stay is 28 days and I'm keeping it at that, there are too many uncontrollable variables, Electricity, Gas, Water, Bedlinen etc to allow a person stay for longer without a deposit I control and lease to protect me in case of catastrophic damage.
I think, there is a case that if the utilities cost fall outside the nominal range of use (there are statistics covering this) an additional charge should be levied, in my case the highest was 7% and the lowest was 1.85% to date. I would be interested to know what percentage the utilities were of the gross fee YOU received?
