How do I ask my Airbnb host for early check-in?

If you haven't booked yet and know you'll need an earlier check-in, go to the listing and click or tap Contact Host to send a message asking if you can arrive earlier. You'll be able to find out whether or not this is possible before you book a reservation, and will end up saving money (and time).

It is up to the discretion of each host to determine whether or not to charge a cleaning fee, although it is worth noting that the charging of a cleaning fee is a common practice on Airbnb. However, some hosts prefer not to charge a cleaning fee and instead add the fee to their overall nightly price.

Hosts aren't allowed to charge guests a security deposit through our Resolution Center or outside the Airbnb platform. Instead, we inform guests at the time of booking that their payment method may be charged if they cause damage during a stay.

Review the Hotel Policy Some hotels charge day or half-day rates that you can reserve if you arrive very early. This is typically cheaper than the full nightly rate. Others work by the hour, charging you a certain amount for every hour you need to check in earlier or check out later.
