Reservation Request vs Inquiry
Key Differences
Inquiry
The guest clicked the “Contact Host” button. This is if the guest has questions they want answered before booking, or because they just don’t know how to use the site.
Reservation Request
Guest wants to stay, but Instant Book isn’t available (or the guest doesn’t qualify for Instant Book).
Instant Book
Instant Book is available, and the guest qualifies. The reservation is completed immediately.
