What does “directly bookable” mean?

On www.acomodeo.com our clients can either make a definite booking or make an enquiry for an apartment which is not "directly bookable".

By adding an apartment to an apartment type, you accordingly create an availability for the chosen apartment type. Hence, the apartment can be booked directly through www.acomodeo.com and you receive a booking confirmation via e-mail. This booking is binding and its availability at the price and length offered to the client at the time on www.acomodeo.com has to be ensured.

If you have not added available apartments to your apartment types, your apartments are available only on request. That means that clients cannot make a direct and definite booking through www.acomodeo.com. They can only send an enquiry for an apartment of your property. After they have submitted their enquiry, you will receive an email through our RFP System. Further information about the RFP-System: FAQ RFP System.

You do not have to decide whether you only offer directly bookable apartments or apartments on request - You can offer both.
