I agree with most everyone and I congratulate Alex for the helpful thread.
I do not have enough experience to speak with Authority on this, but my first guest gave me five stars on everything but a four-star overall experience after he snuck in an extra guest. He is what I call a millennial-American.
Here's my idea: when guests are leaving, checking out, I send them an email saying
"I hope you enjoyed your stay and if you get a chance please leave a review for me. Please bear in mind that according to Airbnb's algorithms anything less than five stars is viewed as a negative."
Since using it twice I received one all five star review and the other party did not leave a review.
I go by feel according to how I think the guest will react.
But I like the sound of my sentence,
according to AirB&B's algorithms anything less than five stars reflects as a negative on a host's listing.
