We had two guests check into our Suite who booked the suite for two weeks during the holiday season. They stayed for two days and complained that the room was damp. We had just had our first rain in a year...so dampness was in the air, and we offered them a heater which they accepted. On the second day, they came up and said that they wanted to leave. We offered them another room which overlooked the pool but they said they had already booked another place on the beach and paid for it. As they arrived by taxi with no car, even though we encourage our guests to rent a car, we believe that despite our post being very clear as to our location, they decided that they wanted to be on the beach instead and thus wanted to cancel the room they had booked a month earlier. This, of course, left us with no rental for those two weeks and when we had several other inquiries on the roo, The question is what is the Airbnb policy in this kind of situation where the hosts lose a rental during the holiday period? Are we required to give them a full refund for the 2 weeks? Or are we allowed to give them a partial refund as in 50% of the rental for the two week period? Reading some of these posts on this forum, it appears the hosts bare the burden of capricious guests, which would not be accepted in a hotel. Has anyone had a similar situation and how was it resolved? It was for a substantial sum and a loss to us for the Christmas holidays, which was from the 7th December to the 21st. Thank you...
