Airbnb allows By default we only support instant book because it is proven that listings on instant book generate more bookings for API connected listingsand have a better ranking. But you  We strongly recommend to only use instant book but if required we can set individual listings to be bookable on request only. Airbnb only allows listings which guests are allowed not listed on any other OTA which facilitates instant book to be set to 'Request'.

Yes, Airbnb does not support supports dorms. We can not send how many beds are available. If one bed is available Airbnb will allow a booking for all beds in the dorm which will cause overbookings. What you can do is create a room with one bed in Beds24 and send this as a listing to Airbnb or map it to an existing listing which represents one bed. In Beds24 you can use virtual rooms to make the availability of these individual beds dependent on the availability of your dorm.
