How to share some basics about your place
Let guests know how many people can comfortably stay in your home.
By Airbnb on 13 Oct 2025
Guests want to know how big your place is. Help them decide if it meets their needs by sharing your guest maximum and the total number of beds, bedrooms and bathrooms available.
If you’re not sure, try these tips:
- Set a guest maximum you feel good about. Just because your place can sleep a certain number of people doesn’t mean you have to accommodate that many guests.
- Count the number of beds you have. Consider how many people can comfortably sleep in each one.
- Count the number of bathrooms you have. WCs have a toilet and sink but no shower or bath.
- Don’t make assumptions. For example, 2 people travelling together may not plan to share a bed.
- Avoid surprising guests. If your bed count includes any casual sleeping arrangements – like sofas, futons or airbeds – be sure to mention this when you add your listing description and photo captions.
Use the plus and minus buttons to set your guest maximum and to note how many bedrooms, beds and bathrooms are available.
You’ll be able to add more details about each room after you publish your listing.
