Hi
I am going to reserve a flat in Vienna for 6 month. The rent per month is 500 € and deposite is 1000€. How much is the approximately guest service fee for this reservation?
I need to know it before I complete the reservation process?
The guest service fee is mentioned in the booking form, before you sent the booking request.
Be sure you book on the official Airbnb website !
As this is a "long term stay " reservation the "long term stay"-cancellation policy applies. Be sure you understand it in all details:
The Airbnb Guest Service fee for a "long term stay" is approx 11 to 12 % (That is what i experienced my guests payed for "long term stay", but the booking form will present you the actual information)
Best regards,
Emiel
Dear Emiel,
Thanks for yor reply.
Is it 11-12% of one mouth rent?
Could you please, give me an estimate cost for my case!
Thanks a lot.
@Maryam63 This is a discussion forum for hosts and guests. No one here has access to your account or Airbnb fees for a listing at any given time.
But what you said in your original posts raises some red flags. There is no such thing as a "deposit" on an Airbnb listing. Guests can sometimes opt to pay half when they book and the other half a week or so before check-in. They are certainly not required to pay twice the cost of a months stay as a "deposit".
I am concerned that you are dealing with a scammer with a fake listing on a "look-alike" Airbnb site.
Can you post the URL for this listing, so others can let you know if it is a scam? If it is, you could lose all your money for a listing that actually doesn't exist. There are many of these scammers out there robbing people.
Dear Sara

Yes, this is a scam. Compare the web address:
