refund cleaning fee

I've agreed to waive the cleaning fee for a guest. Is there a way to "turn it off" for their booking or can I refund it after they book?  Any suggestions on how to handle this would be much appreciated.

Hi, 

 

It sounds like they haven't booked yet so tell the guest to send you a booking request and just give them a special offer price to exclude the booking fee; the special offer option will show up next to the accept or decline.

@Amaris0 Oops! Reservation inquiry, not reservation request.  You can only send a Special Offer to inquiries.  I'm sure that's what you meant.  🙂

Ouch! Thanks Clare, actually I stand corrected, I didn't know it was only for inquiries; apologies Krista for the misinformation.

Many thanks,

Ama

Hi Clare how are you?

 

I'm new to airbandb. How much do you charge for a cleaning fee?? Or is it optional??? Do you charge a refundable deposit for lost keys and damages etc?? 

 

Kind regards,

 

Bevan

I had a reservation that cancelled on the day of check-in. I understand that as a host, I still receive payment for the reservation but how do the guests get the cleaning fee back?
