Why can some homestays be cancelled five days before check-in?

Some B& Bs can be cancelled five days before check-in, because B& Bs usually belong to individuals or small groups, unlike hotels with strict professional management. Therefore, B&B's cancellation policy is relatively loose, which not only avoids unnecessary occupation of the property, but also facilitates the owner to cancel the order when necessary.

On these platforms, if the housing is tight or the booking date is close, the owner may be more willing to negotiate with the guests in order to reserve the housing for other guests in need.

It should be noted that different B&B platforms and landlords may have different cancellation policies, which shall be subject to the cancellation policy on the listing details page. If cancellation is allowed, cancellation policies and procedures should be followed to avoid unnecessary expenses or affect the credit score.
