my check in times are listed as 3pm-8pm (I work from 9pm-3am), checkout is 11am.
Towels are plentiful and in the room, replenished as needed.
Sheets are changed once a week, or after each guest on short stay has left.
I have a cleaning fee listed, but I'm wondering about other fees that incur, can we charge for these? and how do we charge for these?
I've had inquiries asking about extremely early checking in, and very late checking out.
Now as long as I don't have someone else booked that same day, it's not much of an inconvenience, but adding up to 18 hours to your stay is another day to me .... is it not?
Asking to have the sheets changed daily, a fee or no?
Excessive use of towels ... I think that 2 each of hand towels, face cloths, and bath towels (for each person,per day) is reasonable, but when I'm asked if I can supply a dozen extra towels a day, it seems a bit excessive. I can do that but the laundry sure adds up.
Considering that I have to strip the room of all linens, clean the room entirely and make it up again along with the daily cleaning of my entire place (guests have access to 95% of the home), I feel its only fair to ask for some sort of concession.
If I'm in a hotel, they come banging on your door if your not checked out in time, and you are charged another fee if you request a late check out. If I arrive early at a hotel, I wait in the lobby to get into my room.
How do I charge for this and is it somewhere on the AirBnB system?
Do I post a notice in the room of extra fees?
