Booking.com is indeed nice, however, the cut they take is quite substantial (in my country it is 18% including taxes) and I believe there is a lot of room for competition. I see bookings from Airbnb being on the rise. What Airbnb charges me is peanuts compared to Booking.com. Perhaps a Hotel might benefit from the marketing but for me that's not the case as most of our customers are climbers who come to climb in Osp and they book whatever is available next weekend. Also what I don't like about Booking.com is that I can either accept cash in person as payment or accept credit cards through them but not both. I absolutely have to accept cash but why do I have to completely give up the safety net of credit cards and being able to charge no-show penalties.
What software do you use to sync Booking.com and Airbnb bookings calendars? I was using http://www.sync.rentals/ http://www.sync.rentals/ but they seem to have reliability issues (or maybe websites don't like them). Anyways I would love not having to write my own tool for this task and it would save me a lot of time.
Business opportunity for someone?
