Hello everybody,
My name is Friederycke. On Airbnb my husband Jeff and I are "Friederycke and Jeff". We have two Airbnb listings in The Hague, Netherlands. We have been doing both long term and short term rentals since 2010 and we have been on Airbnb since 2014. We started because we really had no choice. We couldn't sell our old home in the middle of the real estate crisis and it was becoming too small for our growing family. We have had many happy guests since then and we now also share our current home, because we like it.
I have learned a lot from the Airbnb new hosts group. Thank you Deborah for setting up this forum!
In about an hour or so, I am off to a city council meeting. They are proposing to increase occupancy tax for Airbnb type rooms up to 16%. Large hotels will pay 3%. Very unfair and harmful for the city, in my opinion. They will open the floor for citizens to respond to the proposal, so that is what I will do.
Looking forward to learning and sharing here!
