Will Airbnb refund me if I leave early?

For a 50% refund, guests must cancel a minimum of 30 full days before check-in. If a guest cancels at any point within 30 days before check-in, the booked nights will not be refunded. If the guest checks in and leaves early, none of the nights stayed, nor the nights booked will be refunded by Airbnb.

So if he cancels the reservation in the system he will get full refund of the nights not spent with you. You have to do nothing if he cancels.
