Blocking out dates, does it include people checking in that day?

I am trying to block off a Thursday, Friday and Saturday night where my guests would checkout at 11 on Sunday. What days on my calendar do I block off so if someone wanted to book in Sunday evening that would be possible? I’ve blocked off Thursday, Friday and Saturday but not sure if I should block off Sunday.

Hi Tiffany, 

If your unit is available for a Sunday Check in, do not block that date.  You probably have a check in time after 3pm, as long as it open for check in, you will want to leave it unblocked.  

Good luck!

@Tiffany234 It's less confusing to think of the dates as nights rather than days. So if you can host on Sunday night, and it works for you for those guests to check in during the day on Sunday, don't block the Sunday. But do make sure the check-out Sunday guests are aware that they need to check out on time so you have time to turn it over for the following guests, and don't let the Sunday night guests try to push your check-in time so you're scrambling to get the cleaning done.

 That’s great! Thanks Sarah!
