Same day checkin and checkout

[Ronelle9]

I'm new to hosting on Airbnb and I urgently  need some advice regarding a request for a check in at 8am and checkout at 4pm on the same day. Is this recommended or not?

I would NOT recommend accepting this. What did the guest say as to why they only wanted to stay for such a short period of time?

He did not respond to that question when I asked him.. I am not sure what his plan is for the stay... His inquiry showed only 1 person and his initial booking for 5 nights and then he said he needed a same day checkin and checkout.. He has only 1 review but it has a 5 star rating... any further advise on how to move forward with this inquiry?

If he wants to do this he would have to pay for two nights @Ronelle9  to cover this period

Since he didn't respond to your question...that is your red flag. Decline the stay (IMHO).
