AITA for refusing to split an Airbnb evenly when I’m only staying 2 of the 3 nights?

A friend is planning a birthday trip for four people and wants to rent a 4-bedroom Airbnb for three nights. From the beginning, I told him I could only stay Friday–Sunday due to work, so I’d only be there for two of the three nights.

When we discussed splitting costs, I said I thought it made sense for me to pay for two nights instead of three. He said another person staying two nights is still paying for all three and implied I should do the same. He also mentioned he’s putting most of his portion on a credit card.

I offered to share a room if that helped lower costs, but he prefers the 4-bedroom house. The extra night would cost me about $100.

AITA for only wanting to pay for the nights I’ll actually be there?

**Edit: I want to clarify that we had only ever discussed sharing beds/rooms to keep costs down. A 4-bedroom was never brought up as an option before it was booked.**
