Booking.com. insane not to use.
I have been using booking.com and Airbnb mostly. People complain about booking.com cancellations. I have fixed that completely.
Airbnb types are seeking cheap and deeply discounted. Booking.com people pay a premium pricing and are good guests. I don't get a huge amount, but it is a good stream.
My secret is I use the one-hour window to allow cancellation. They made an error or are just confused, it weeds most of them out. I use strict / flexible cancellation policy. Any cancellation within 60 days I get the full payment.
I realize there are Regional differences. Booking.com leaves Airbnb in the dust in my area.
