Guests not answering the pre booking questions

[Andrea7253]

Hi! I’m new to hosting and am wondering if other hosts get a lot of booking requests without answering the preset questions about their travel and guests? I have even asked again to inquire who will be staying at my home and get a feel for what type of stay it will be prior to accepting. Do you all accept bookings when people don’t answer the questions asked?

Thanks for any advise you can give!

Hello @Andrea7253 

If it's a booking request, then just repeat the questions when you respond to their booking request.

Yes I have with no luck. Seems like people just ignore them. I occasionally will have people answer after I have asked serveral times and denied the request. I feel the questions are important because it’s the only vetting im able to do.
