Family Friendly

I just listed a new property and I ticked that it was suitable for children 0-2 years old as it is a one bedroom apartment with portacot and highchair.  When I published the listing it is coming up as Family Friendly which I don't think is accurate.  Any ideas on where I can change this?

@Karen409 I think that as soon as you tick that it is suitable for children it will appear as family friendly. But you can put in your description that it is only a room, with 2 beds and 1 crib and that you can host just 1 infant up to 2 y.o. but not older children.

 

On Airbnb infants up to 2 y.o. stay free of charge by default but you can charge them if you want, just put in your description and house rules that hosting infants will cost xx €/day and they should contact you before they book so you can send them special offer.

Hi Karen,

 

Did you ever figure out how to take that "family friendly" off your listing? I just had a mom get upset with me because I informed her the house is by no means child-proof and is not even close to suitable for toddlers. (I said it in a much nicer way.) My listing already has the must be an infant-2 restriction, but she was still upset with me anyway.

 

I'd rather have the "family friendly" completely off my listing.

I can't figure out how to edit my listing to remove Family Friendly. All I can do is go into the amenity details and I've checked none of the "family" list items.

The previous option I had -- not suitable for 2 and under -- seems to have disappeared! A 12 year old and a parent would be fine. I only have a 300 sq ft efficiency and simply can't accommodate 3 people, including a parent and two kids, or (ugh) two parents and two kids, etc. And the space is not baby proofed at all.

If anyone knows how to remove "Family Friendly" please advise.
