Listing Setup: Booking.com- Property Policies General Info

Listing Setup: Booking.com - Setup

In short

The Booking.com property policies section sets the ground rules guests see before booking, including internet access, check-in and check-out times, age restrictions, how guests access the property, smoking, parties, quiet hours and pets. Clear, accurate policies set expectations and reduce disputes. Keep them consistent with your other platforms and share private access details only through guest messaging.
