Please help...host not responding to booking request

[Jeena3]

Please advise me on what to do. I have sent a booking request to a host. It's been 13 hours and she hasn't responded yet. And now it's sleeping hours at her place, so i think my request is going to expire. The thing is that i saw this statement in her listing "not taking reservations after April 1". Our travel dates are April 16 - 26. And she had left all the days in April open. So even though i found this certain phrase odd, i went ahead and sent a booking request. But like i said before, she hasn't responded even after 13 hours. Could any one please advise me what to d

Hi @Jeena3 🙂

I would withdraw the request asap. If it says that she doesn't accepts bookings after April 1st. then write her a message instead using the "contact host" link asking why her calender is wide open and not blocked. 

If she doesn't answer within 24 hours it is a huge red flag and I would look for another place to stay.
