How our grading works
Eight weighted factors, one clear answer
We do not promise that every property should go short-term. We score what actually affects demand, nightly pricing, and operational reliability.
Unit Type 15%
Hotels, studios, apartments, houses, and villas attract different traveler profiles and pricing ceilings.
Bedrooms 10%
Studios and 1BR units are often more efficient to fill, while larger homes need stronger positioning to hold occupancy.
Budget Tier 15%
Budget, Average, High-End, and SuperLux tiers influence both ADR power and guest expectations.
Amenities 15%
Pool, gym, backup power, secure parking, full AC, strong WiFi, and in-unit convenience add real booking lift.
Reviews 10%
Units with 4.8+ reviews convert faster and protect their pricing better than weaker listings.
Professionally Managed 5%
Operational consistency matters. Managed units maintain pricing discipline, guest response, and service quality.
Multi-Channel Visibility 5%
Listings that rely on one platform leave occupancy on the table. Better channel mix is built into our grading logic.
What your grade means
The grade shows fit. The real question is earnings after operations.
A+ and A units are usually premium inventory with the strongest combination of location, design, amenities, and operational readiness. They are the most likely to command premium rates and stay full with disciplined management.
B+ and B units can still perform well, but there is usually a clear lever to improve — design, power backup, channel mix, review quality, or professional management.
C and below often means the unit needs repositioning, upgrades, or a more honest STR vs LTR decision. That is exactly where our market view helps most.

| Grade | Score Range | What It Means | Typical Earnings View |
|---|---|---|---|
| A+ | 90–100 | Elite unit — top location, SuperLux finish, strong reviews, multi-channel readiness. | Upper premium tier — exact numbers gated |
| A | 80–89 | Strong performer — premium area, quality furnishing, solid review base. | High-performing tier — exact numbers gated |
| B+ | 70–79 | Above average — good setup, but still upside from amenities, pricing, or management. | Competitive tier — exact numbers gated |
| B | 60–69 | Average — workable for STR, but not yet a standout performer. | Entry STR tier — exact numbers gated |
| C | 45–59 | Below average — weaker location, thin amenities, or review drag. | Limited upside — exact numbers gated |
| D | 30–44 | Struggling — major upgrades or repositioning required. | Often LTR comparison required |
| F | <30 | Not viable for STR in its current form. | LTR only |
Why operators win
Top-tier performance comes from systems, not hope
Bottom 50% of listings earn under $800 per month because they are usually under-managed, under-designed, and too dependent on a single channel.
Sky Suites clients perform in the top tier by pairing design quality with dynamic pricing, professional guest communication, multi-channel distribution, and in-house operations.
The grade is your first signal. The exact revenue estimate then shows whether STR really outperforms LTR for your specific setup.

Frequently asked questions
Revenue estimator FAQs
How accurate is the Sky Suites grading system?
The grading system is designed as a decision tool, not a guarantee. It mirrors the same 8-factor framework Sky Suites uses when assessing Accra units for STR readiness, so it is directionally strong for spotting whether a property looks like a top-tier, mid-tier, or weak short-term rental candidate.
What factors determine my property's STR grade?
Your grade is shaped by location, unit type, bedroom count, furnishing level, amenities, reviews, management quality, and multi-platform distribution. Location carries the most weight, but weak operations or poor amenities can still drag down an otherwise strong unit.
Can a low-graded property still do well on Airbnb?
Yes, but usually not at top-tier levels. A lower-graded property can still earn on Airbnb if pricing is disciplined, costs are controlled, and the setup fits a clear guest segment, but in many cases Sky Suites would advise comparing it seriously against long-term rental before committing to STR.
