@Bernice25 

Please provide more details.

Do you refer to your own listing (as a host) or is it about a booking as a guest ?

As a host but also heard from others

@Bernice25 } What do you mean "way too high"? Your first listing shows $121/night. Two nights' booking would be $242. So a $26 service fee is about 12%, which is actually on the low end of Airbnb service fees to guests.

Or are you talking about the host service fees they are deducting?

The hosting fee that they are charging me as a host

@Bernice25  Well then, yes, there would seem to be something wrong. Are you sure you don't have that box checked with that new feature where you can choose to absorb all the fees yourself as a host? It could be on by default and you may need to uncheck it.

I had it on the box checked recommended then I just changed it to the other to see if that makes a difference
