Reviews

Hi All, 
As a host are the reviews of my listing publicly visisble if I haven't given a reciprocal review to a guest? 
Many thanks

Hello @Pat99,

If you don't review a guest but they review you, the guest's review will appear on your profile and listing page 14 days after checkout.

Also, your review will appear on the guest's profile after 14 days even if they don't review you.

I hope you're not thinking of not reviewing some guest. Hosts check a guest's previous reviews to make a judgment on whether the guest's behaviour was good in the past. You have instant book on one of your apartments. Guests can use instant book only if other hosts have clicked on the thumbs up button for them. So you are relying for your business on other hosts reviewing guests. Please review guests.

Steve.

Hello @Steve143
Very helpful, thanks for the intel. 
I wasn't aware that the 'thumbs up' was the key to allowing guests to instanly book. 
Presumably there's a percentage of thumbs up they must achieve in order to do this. 
FYI, I do review all guests. 
best regards, 
Pat
