Cancel instant booking due to check-out on new years eve?

Hello 😃

 

I just got an instant book of 3 nights, from 28/12 to 31/12. Very unfortunate dates, hosting wise, as it blocks the whole new years for just 3 nights. I have already change the custom minimum stay for christmas and new years to 5 nights, but my question now is regarding cancelling this reservation.

 

The reason is actually not an economic one either, but I can't guarantee that the cleaning company can go there and clean on new years eve/day. Is this enough to cancel penalty free? It was booked less than 12 hours ago.

 

(I'm new, and I know I can cancel any reservation penalty free during the first month, how can I see if I'm still in the trial period?)

 

 

Thanks

Patrik

Things just happens,you just have to keep track of canceling,even tho Airbnb allows  you us as host to cancel I believe is 3 or 5 , but you have to remember the computer systems,work on its own you know what I mean so be careful now on instant booking it really don't matter but one thing I tell you safty first
