Review info please

I finally got my first guest and they loved my place but I have asked them to please write a review 3 times now and they haven't. (I'm itching for that first review!). I already wrote a review on them so I know how that works for the host but how does it work for the guest? Does Airbnb prompt them to write a review or no?  Also, when someone reads my messages, does Airbnb let me know they've been read so I know they've seen the message? I don't think this happens but thought I'd ask anyway. Thank you for any help here. I'm still learning!

Airbnb sends prompts to the guests (and you too now, so they have plenty!). Some guests do not review at all, some do. Nothing you can do about it! They either will or wont. No, at the moment we can't see if a message has been read but it is up on the wishlist if Airbnb takes note of Host Voice. You can go and give it a thumbs up, all the new ideas are posted up there. This idea is quite far in tha back, as it went up early on. More thumbs ups and Airbnb will maybe look at it.

Thank you, Sandra
