Change in minimum settings and unable to modify due to current booking?

I have had a frustrating conversation with Airbnb and am wondering if anyone else has had similar issues. 

 

I went to modify the minimum nights stay for a few days in April. The system did not allow me to make any changes. Originally I had my listing set for a 5 night minimum stay - what was posted was a 28 day minimum. When I went to modify this - the message error stated that I was not all allowed to do short term stays. It is not an issue with my city or licensing as I checked with them. 

 

I phoned Airbnb to remedy this situation. They had no answer as to why this change occurred. They said that I could not make any changes to my settings because I have a current stay happening now. What?! I can make changes to future reservations while I have a guest staying - I have never heard of this. 

 

Are these two issues common with others. 

1. Airbnb changed my stay length without informing me?

2. I am unable to make any changes to my listing or future reservations while I have a current guest?

 

Any insights would be welcome - I am following up with another level of Airbnb.

Thanks
