Hello @Pikala0 ,

I searched on Google Maps and found the Pikala Hostel and Rooftop. What a beautiful, easygoing, vibrant, and welcoming setup you have there!

I’m not sure what your question is, but on Airbnb, you’ll need to create a listing for each bed (and number the beds) since guests will be reserving a specific one.

The system isn't like a hotel, where people book a typical room and are assigned a room at check-in based on availability. On Airbnb, it doesn’t work that way.

You can also create another listing for an entire dorm room if you want to allow groups to book the whole space. Just make sure to link the listings so there won’t be any overbooking.

One more thing: don’t be tempted to try channel managers right away. They can affect your pricing structure, so it is best to get familiar with Airbnb system first.

If you need further instructions, let me know.

@Pikala0 ,

I would like to add that your current listing won’t work as it is. Once one guest books a bed, the entire listing will appear as unavailable for others. You should separate the beds into individual listings, as I suggested earlier.
