Bed options

Hello, I have a zip and link bed in my flat which means that the bed can be either a kingsize or 2 x singles. I have that in the description in the text of my listing. However, the bed options in the settings only seem to allow you to pick one bed so that if a potential guest was looking at Bedroom 1, Bedroom 2 boxes, they would only see 1 type of bed or that the room has both (which doesn't make it clear that they are an 'either/or') Is it possible to have the kingsize and singles shown in the bedroom box as an 'either/or'? Many thanks for your help. Sarah

I had the same problem - 1 room which could be used as single, twin or ziplinked double. Told to have 3 different listings. ok but Airbnb put all three listings in the same 'section' not as three separate listings. I had great difficulty finding ANY of my listings when looking as a potential guest.

Thank you Helen. I think what you've said means that there isn't a way to show different bed set ups as an option at the moment. That's certainly what I had thought too. Would be great if that could be possible.Kind regards, Sarah 

@Sarah1036we have 2 single beds and listed as such. Then, in picture caption  under the photo we state the beds can be pulled together. And it works.

 

 

Thanks very much. I've done that so fingers crossed that potential guests look at that. I appreciate your help. Kind regards, Sarah

Airbnb does not seem to read carefully either complaints or replies to complaints. I did not provide a solution to Sarah's problem but did what Airbnb 'specialist' told me to do. This has not helped in any way. In fact, it has made it more difficult to find my listings. I realise that Airbnb is geared to USA market and does not understand UK(& other) terminology. Please deal with the problem of one room with 3 configurations as ONE listing.

well we have the same issue.  Our one bedroom cottage can be set up as two singles or one ziplinked Super King.  Some guests are confused and ofcourse we do not know how many don't boook as a result.  Have asked Airbnb to add either/or or Zip-Link to the bed choices on several occasions but to no avail.  We do show pictures of both set-ups and have put it in the description.  Would dearly like this issue solved
