@Alice-and-Jeff0 : not necessarily, even with IB activated you still get questions without booking.
@Tim100 there's something wrong in the way you answer queries but I don't know what, it could be anything..
Also, it may not be an important feature of your place but simply how you come across, my feeling as a host is that any host can get it wrong two ways :
- too needy (please book my apartment...)
- I don't care (the opposite : not answering potential guest questions)
When communicating with potential guests, I tend to keep my answers informative, ultra short and straight to the point.
I also allow myself to ignore some questions when I feel it's not the right time to answer.
Hope all this helps,
Enjoy and happy new year !
