Sorry about the Caps lock. I have a baby in tow and am writing with one hand.
I want to rent each room individually for cheap, like $10 less than the lowest price. I have MY home with 8 bedrooms and 2 baths and I can easily live in the travel trailer that I own in my yard.
I plan to provide: Sheets, pillows, Towels, shampoo/soap from a dispenser, toilet paper from commercial holder that needs key. Paper towels from dispenser.
I plan to clean ever. Each room can have a max of 2 guests, plus their kids and pets. Fine, as long as you pay the extra fee.
How much is a reasonable pet fee?
I plan to have cameras in the common areas and in the yard and
I'd like to charge $5 or $10 for a goodie bag, but I wanted your opinion?
Because I don't want to charge it in the room because it will make Airbnb will take a cut of it and it is all going to the guest and their stay and if they don't want it they don't have to buy it. This is what I want to include individually wrapped: Slippers, Ear plugs, Eye Mask, tampon, maxi pad, aleve or advil, alka seltzer, pepto bismol , 2 kcups and sweetener kit, conditioner, shampoo, lotion, bar soap, face soap (1 or 2) toothbrush with toothpaste, razor with shaving cream, body scrub.
I don't know if I would sell individual items, but that is an option, probably at a dollar a piece or for the pair. I would write all this in the rules and review and probably let them know via intro text message.
I know that the turnover for so many rooms sounds like a lot and it probably is, but I'm a stay at home mom and cleaning and laundry is what I do, plus watching my boys. Getting paid for that sounds like a great way to make a living! And eventually, I will be able to hire some help.
