Sell dorms on Airbnb
This page explains how setup your property in Beds24 to sell DORMS in Airbnb.com

Airbnb supports dorms. We can send inventory/how many beds are available.

1 Setup

You have a room type (dorm) with multiple individual beds (Unit Allocation = one per guest). You also want to sell them on Airbnb.com or other channel that requires a bed/unit.

It is assumed you already have setup the room type with the number of beds, if not, create this first. See the details of how to setup dorms.


Setup your Property to meet Airbnb DORM setup

Go to (SETTINGS) > PROPERTIES > DESCRIPTION >

  • Property Type = Hostel

Go to (SETTINGS) > CHANNEL MANAGER > AIRBNB> SPECIFIC CONTENT >

  • Property Type Group = boutique_hotels_and_more
  • Listing Type = Shared room
  • Bathroom Shared = Choose one of the options with shared bathroom (CAN NOT BE PRIVATE)

2 Common Errors

This listing's property type does not support multiple inventories. OR room_type_invetory_not_supported
 Check  (SETTINGS) PROPERTIES >  DESCRIPTION > 'Property Type" and the  'Listing Type' match with the 'Property Type Group' you have selected in (SETTINGS)  CHANNEL MANAGER > AIRBNB > SPECIFIC CONTENT.  Check the (?) for Property Type Group for the correct Listing Type for each group.
  • If (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > AIRBNB > MAPPING > Sync Type = Prices & Availability, then you need to ensure the setup in Airbnb meets the Listing Type/Property Type Group.
  • Otherwise change the Sync type = Everything to update from Beds24.
  • Please also note that Airbnb has regional restrictions for some property types. Use the context help for information on which combinations are allowed. Check with Airbnb support if you have a problem with your property type.
