Louise, you can state that in your house rules but, that is possibly a bit difficult without requesting additional money once the booking is confirmed Louise!
You can't automatically charge by the bed with Airbnb, only by the guest on a particular listing! You can set your property up as a number of listings and then charge by the bed with each bed being a seperate listing.
So to pick an example....
1 guest in one bedroom = $100
2 guests in one bedroom = $100
2 guests in two bedrooms, still $100....it is not the bedrooms that are being automatically charged, it is the guests.
I have this problem frequently! I have a main bed and the lounge becomes a sofa bed to accomodate that extra child or person. So, I charge $85AU for the main bed and I charge an additional $15-$30 when there are 3-4 guests for the person/s using the sofa bed. That works well but, quite often I will get a mother/daughter, or a couple of friends travelling together and they would prefer to sleep in seperate beds, and the system does not allow me to charge that additional amount for the second bed when there is only two of them. It is still just two guests and they get charged at the guest base rate that I set.
When this happens I just suck it up and cop the extra cost where the servicing is concerned.
Sure, I can request additional money that is seperate to the standard booking charge but that just antagonises people so I just take the hit.
