Can you get discount after booking Airbnb?

The only way to get an Airbnb discount after you've booked is if the host agrees to give you a discount. While they can't send you a special offer anymore, they can adjust the details of the reservation. And once you accept, you'll be refunded your money.

So, is booking an Airbnb last minute cheaper? We recommend a middle path: Booking neither many months in advance nor a few days before check-in, but somewhere in between.
