Would be nice if we could be able to offer, as a host - a 10 days or 14 days cancellation for free.
This would make it much easier for people to book - and cancel - without loosing their money..
5 days in advance (moderate) as we have now is to little...
If they book from saturday.. they have to cancel 5 days before, that means monday.
That means the people that search for you place in the weekend before - do not see your place, as its already booked.
Getting new bookings by people searching on workdays is possible.. but it would be better if you could offer "everyone" possibility to find your place.. and by that I mean that people that search for places normally searches either on weekends OR workdays.
Having 10 days in advance would make both groups of searchers find your place!!
Would be nice to get thumbs up to see if others agree and find this a good solution. (thank you)
