Good to know

  • An accommodation’s rooms are its own. A room booked for a stay can’t be booked by another guest for the same night.
  • Guests pay the deposit online or by transfer to your own account. With Require deposit off, Pay in person can be offered too, if your business takes it.
  • To connect a room to Airbnb, Booking.com or Agoda, see Sync your calendars with Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda.
  • Stays is on every plan.
