Hosting standards and tips for great trips

The habits that lead to good reviews, fewer problems, and more bookings.

Updated October 10, 2026

Before the trip

  • Keep your calendar accurate. A trip you have to cancel costs you a fee and your ranking.
  • Reply to requests and messages quickly.
  • Describe the car and the handoff clearly. Surprises create bad reviews.
  • Prepare the car: clean, fuelled or charged, and safe.

At the handoff

  • Be on time, or message early if you are running late.
  • Check the guest’s license, and complete the check-in photos together.
  • Explain how to lock and unlock, charge or refuel, and who to call.

During and after

  • Check in once during longer trips. Don’t monitor the guest’s location beyond what the trip needs.
  • Do the check-out the same careful way as the check-in.
  • File charges and claims promptly and with evidence.
  • Stay polite in messages, even when you disagree.
