    I have worked around this but the result is multiple discount definitions that often do the same thing.

    To make this task easier I know I would benefit from the following 2 upgrades to defining discounts.

    #1 ability to export, make modifications to exported data, and import new discount information back in

    #2 ability to have discounts remain dormaint (ACTIVE FLA...

    I am resurrecting this topic in case someone has solved how to control the thermostat from ical? or some other way? I do not usually care to change temp on a turnover day, but if the gap is 2 nights or more, I'd like to have some way of setting temp. to what it should be. I have 3 VRs with 7 thermostats and 2 apps between them (5 are Honeywell 9000) so we are constantly on "thermostat watch". so I...

    Hi guys,

    Is there a way to break down by adults, children and pet total on the booking page for the month? Presently it just give one total for adults and children. I would like to see 4/2/1 or something like that for 4 adults, 2 children, 1 pet. Can that be done easily?

    This is under BOOKING tab, month by month, overview.

    Thanks,
    Claudia

    It would be very useful to have the ability to set the send criteria by hours or days.

    for example - I currently send an email with the lock code a day before and then a reminder 2 hours before arrival. For the 2 hour reminder, I send both email and SMS.
    I also like my emails to arrive mid-morning or mid-afternoon so as to get to the guests outside of the normal rush times for other emails/work ob...

Now they are asking for last 2 years of tax returns saying this is "high risk". WUT? I have over 800 credit score and I am not even applying for a loan, mind you.

    ...t. A related question - is there a way to make renter validate number of guests before proceeding to check out and rental agreement. for example, some Tripadvisor inquiries come in with default (like 2 people). my places sleep 10 and 12, so usually when I see 2, it means they just used a site default. I do not want to be correcting the agreement if they proceed to book from the quote, so can i forc...

    ...b has no way to cap off the departure -- it's a "stayed at least" criteria). That's probably the closest way to do it.

    To do this, add two booking criteria on the discount:

    1) Number of Nights >= 4
    2) Arrival day of week = 2 (Monday)

    Or you could just do a 4+ night discount applicable any time.

    Any way you do it, I highly recommend testing on the Airbnb guest side to make sure you're getting wh...

I do all my ROI calculations based on the number of nights I expect to rent the property out and the expected rate for those nights (e.g. for a hypothetical 2-bedroom condo in my market: $85 average for 120 nights of off-peak, $140 average for 100 nights of peak).
