What amenities are renters looking for in a summer/fall rental?

We recently bought a former rental condo and it was in pretty good shape aside for the carpet. We are currently having carpet ripped up and replaced with durable laminate in the hopes it will hold up better to spills.

I believe the unit was used primarily as a seasonal rental for many years but it still came with what appear to be original fridge, range, etc. so I am guessing it didn't take too much abuse!

It came furnished and I was disappointed that the couch didn't fold out so our 2br unit only sleeps 4 - 5 adults with 1 full bed and 2 twin beds with 1 sofa and 1 small love seat. I want to add full bunk to 2nd bedroom for when we have my in-laws (party of 7 including us) but realize that might attract more partiers/larger groups because it seems limited sleeping quarters produced minimal wear and tear on the unit.
