Dear Hosts,
I have been hosting on Airbnb for over a year and recently turned Superhost. Every now and then, I get requests from guests who want to see the place before booking it. Mostly these guests are interested in booking the place long-term i.e. 2 - 4 weeks.
In the past, I have entertained the request couple of times, depending on the rationale presented by the guests and also because I did not have a lot of reviews. Despite showing the place, I would still ask the guests to book through Airbnb. Now, I feel that it is not an effective use of time and lack of faith from guests' side.
How do you deal with such requests?
Regards,
Casadell
