You really have to decide if you must rent in order to pay your bills or you want to rent to get a little extra cash.
In a "must rent" situation, you need lots of beds. A lot of people get groups together so they can afford it. Two families with kids need at least eight sleeping spots. A bunch of college "adults" pool their cash and rent a small house instead hotel rooms. The more beds you have the less cost per person or family, this opens more customers to you. Obviously this type of rental can be hard on the property, but if you need the money...
In a "extra cash" situation, go up-scale. Keep the place nice and add amenities you like.
When I bought and owned at Samoset, it was real easy to tell the difference between "must rent" units and "extra cash" units.
