Hello !
I'm a super host, mostly thanks to our properties in Spain. So I'm very aware of our duties and obligations. We never cancelled any reservations these last 7 or 8 years we've been members of the Airbnb community. We also have an appartment in Edinburgh we sometimes rent throught airbnb.
Got a booking for 4 nights in August in this flat but unfortunately I need to cancel. The building is going to be under renovation this summer and I really can't have people staying there at the same time. So really not the right place for a holiday !!
I'm not sure how to proceed... Should I approach our guests first offering a place to stay in Spain instead ? Should I look for a new place for them in town and suggest to stay there instead ? Should I ask airbnb to help ? I suppose it's not the same to cancel a few days before arrival than six months before. Can I have your recommendation ? Many thanks ! Best, C
