Hello! I'm a relatively new user and just noticed that a feature I previously used in PriceLabs is no longer available and it looks like it is related to OR.

 

I'd like to be able to set it so that my minimum length of stay is 1 night, but for one night stays, my price is double what it would normally be.  Is this possible in OR?

This would be massive imo. I heard from Airbnb rep team that allowing lower number of minimum nights regardless of price really boosts you in the algorithm. 

I spoke with Pricelabs and they say the issue is on the OR side, but who knows how legit that is…


are there any known workarounds?

I checked with PriceLabs, who mentioned that they do not send LOS (length of stay) pricing to OwnerRez; however PriceLabs does offer a orphan premium option you might use to add on a 1 night stay. They also said that they now have several orphan options, not just one, could that be where the confusion is arising?

PriceLabs seems to indicate you can still add that orphan fee:

That makes sense for orphan pricing, but we need a way to increase prices for all lengths of stays. It sounds like this works smoothly with other PMS, but not working with OR for some reason. If there is any more information I can provide or anyone I can talk to to keep the ball rolling please let me know.

Thanks for all your work!

I'm trying to do similar. drop my 3 night minimum to 2 nights on Air and My own site (going to leave it at 3 nights on Booking.com as i can't work out how to do this)

So far I'm thinking of adding a 50% Surcharge on 2 night stays on Air and My site.

I'll let you know if it works.

I don’t think we can add a surcharge to length of stays. Also abb will not allow for short LOS discounts to be more than longer LOS discounts. Worth a try. Maybe just remove discount for 2 nights stays.
