How do I add an extra night via OR without going through Airbnb?

I offer additional nights to upcoming guests at a percentage off.  I've done this in the past by using an additional quote but it's always a hassle with cleaning fees, notifications, etc.  What's the best way to add an extra night to an existing booking at a special price without going through the OTA's and kicking off notifications and adding cleaning fees?

 

Thanks

Tim

Tim - The proper and easiest way to add an additional night for an Airbnb guest is to do this through the Airbnb Resolution Center. Either you or the guest can go into Airbnb and request a change in the reservation to add the additional night. You'll add the new dates and then have the opportunity to adjust the price. Airbnb will request payment from the guest. 

Here is an Airbnb article I found on changing dates:

When you create a new quote for a direct booking for the additional night(s), you can go into the charges and adjust them there, deleting the fees you don't want to charge and adjusting any other fees you want to keep and adjust. The notifications you have triggered for direct bookings can be set to be different than for bookings via Airbnb and other OTAs.

It's totally proper and typically a lot easier to book direct for any additional nights than to add them via Airbnb. The question was how to do that the easiest.
