Depending on your business, a minimum/maximum length of stay is required. See the two options below for setting up your default Minimum and Maximum Length of Stay for your Base Rates.
Thinks you should know:
- The reservations will be refused unless the guest agrees to create a reservation for the minimum/maximum length of stay configured here. Also, when adding direct bookings this restriction will be applied.
- Each channel works differently, so these restrictions may not be applied to certain channels. If you want to apply this restriction to your connected channels, please check this article to confirm if the channel accepts this restriction or not. If you need help or if you do not find your channel on this list please contact our support team at support@cloudbeds.com.

- Choose the desired room type
- Click on 'Add Interval'
