@OhmandWalter0 In my experience if you decline a request by marking
"...I don't feel comfortable..."
it will not count against your acceptance rate.
You easily can support your reason (not comfortable) by pointing out
violation of your specific house rules.
Otherwise I'm with 100% @Lisa723 , just I wouldn't explain too much about bnb policy:
- Let guest know in a first message that the request is in violation of house rules,
and ask to withdraw the request in (remaining) time.
- Point out, if they not withdraw that you will of cause accept the request and that you assume that the reservation will be in line of your house rules, point out that "kids" (as of house rules) will be not allowed on your property.
- If they ignore: Accept the request, again point out that you assume/expect that the reservation will be in line with your house rules... let them know that they can cancel with full refund in next 48H.
