This rule gives the possibility to select certain day(s) of the week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...) on which you would prefer to have all the arrivals.

Charge at least > Extra price for staying less than X days

This rule allows the guest to book for a short period but paying the amount for the stay defined here. This is especially recommended to allow you to lower your minimum stay and avoid gaps in your calendars.

Example: if the season rate is 100€ per night and you set Extra price for staying less than 3 days, then the guest will pay 300€ if he stays 1, 2 or 3 days and then 400€ for 4 days, 500€ for 5 nights, etc.

Charge at least if available > Extra price for staying less than X days if available

This rule allows the guest to book for a short period but paying the amount for the stay defined here.

If the gap between 2 bookings is lower than the number of nights specified, then the guest does not pay the extra price. This also requires to have the dates available (in the calendar, and by having rates set up for those dates), otherwise the rate rule will not be applied.

Example: if the season rate is 100€ per night and you set Extra price for staying less than 3 days if available , then the guest will pay 300€ if he stays 1, 2 or 3 days and there is the availibility for a 3 night stay (i.e. there is a gap in the calendar of more than 3 nights) OR will pay 100€ for 1 night if there is only a 1 night availability, 200€ for 2 nights if there is a 2 night availability, etc.

This rule allows the guest to book for a short period but pay the amount for the full period specified. This is especially recommended for events. Even if the guest decides not to stay the full period, he will be able to book and you get the whole amount.

Example: if the season rate is 100€ per night and you set Extra price for staying less than full period from Tue 14 Mar 2017 to Fri 17 Mar 2017, then the guest will pay 300€ if he stays 1, 2 or 3 days during the period from the 14 till the 17th of March.
