Do Airbnb hosts give discounts for long stays?

Longer stays often mean higher occupancy, lower turnover, and less work for you. To attract guests who prefer a longer stay, you can offer discounts on a weekly or monthly basis. Discounts of 10% or more will be displayed in search results, and all discounts will appear in the price breakdown on your listing.
