Why do I suddenly have no bookings?

Bookings have abruptly stopped since I became super host recently, and I can't find what's amidst.

Hi @Caroline2962

 

Congratulations on your Superhost status! 🎉 I'm sorry to hear that bookings have slowed recently though - did you perhaps check listings around you to see if they were also less busy at this time? 

 

It might also be worth connecting with other Hosts through our Host clubs, if there is one in your area, to get their insights from a local perspective. You can find a local Host Club here 👉 Local Host Clubs

Hi Rebecca

 

Thank you and thank you for your feedback. Bookings seem to have downsized all around in my area so I see now I’m not the only one.

A couple suggestions guests remark on the great private patio I would use that as your cover photo.

Add to your description, you have like 5 pages on the platform  Talk about all the positives people talk about,  I also think advisable to talk about the fewer minor negatives mention so guests know you read your feedback and also more of a negative because a surprise.  Always present negatives neutral.  Parking is available here is where and how much.  If the area has public transportation near so no car necessary talk about that option a lot of people prefer not to drive in another country.

The mattress is mentioned more than once negatively.  That is a big deal.  Either I replaced or mattress toppers or something.  A comfortable bed is a must.
