By number of bedrooms (median nights)
| City | Studio | 1 bedroom | 2 bedrooms | 3+ bedrooms |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brussels | 126 | 150 | 132 | 108 |
| Antwerp | 84 | 90 | 78 | 78 |
| Ghent | 120 | 132 | 117 | 90 |

The figure is an estimate built from reviews: Inside Airbnb assumes a review rate and an average stay, then caps the result at 255 nights a year. Homes whose guests rarely leave a review are underestimated; homes with a long minimum stay are counted with that stay length.
Because it has no currency, this is the indicator to use when London is compared with the other four cities. The share of the year is the same number divided by 365, given for readability only.
Write "an estimated X nights booked" or "estimated occupancy", never "occupancy rate" on its own: no booking was measured.
