What strategies have you found most effective in balancing the challenges of hosting on Airbnb, such as guest behavior and maintenance, while maximizing income?

After much thought, I decided to turn my spare room into an Airbnb listing as here The extra income was enticing, but I quickly learned it had its challenges. On one hand, hosting gave me financial freedom and the joy of meeting people. On the other, there were unpredictable guest behaviours and constant cleaning. The trade-off between extra cash and time-consuming maintenance was tough. Ultimately, I balanced it out by adjusting pricing during high-demand periods and setting clear guest expectations, making the experience more manageable. It’s a rewarding yet demanding venture.
