[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your cleaning fee seems much lower than properties I've used.

Do you also list on vrbo or other sites? In curious about what makes people choose air b and b over other sites, or how they all compare.[/quote]

We don't list on VRBO because the platform sucks. Airbnb makes it effortless - it's just like Uber. Guests find us, register and pay through Airbnb, and Airbnb provides a range of services to help market my space and pays me automatically the morning after a guest arrives. It's seamless.

Also, internationally, Airbnb is the standard. Despite our rather rural location, a good 30% of our guests are international. I love them, because they are effortless too - American guests expect to be greeted, get restaurant recommendations and tips for siteseeing. International guests book instantly online, don't want to be greeted, find the place themselves, leave the place spotless, and I never even see them -- even though they are staying 30 feet from my front door.[/quote]
