How to set restrictions?

  1. Go to the beds tab → Manage → Rates and Restrictions
  2. Click 'Bulk update' (top left)

  4. Choose period → Select days of the week
  5. Select the Restrictions you wish to apply*:
    1. Stop Sell= Close availability online (all channels).
    2. Closed to Arrival (CTA)= No check-ins allowed on this date. Note: Hostelworld does not support CTA.
    3. Closed to Departure (CTD)= No check-outs allowed on this date.
    4. Minimum length of stay (minLOS)= Minimum stay required.
    5. Maximum length of stay (maxLOS)= Maximum stay allowed.

Restrictions apply individually to each rate plan → If you want to apply the same restriction to all your Rate Plans, you must do it one-by-one. 

These restrictions are the ones supported by Counter - Some OTAs may not support all of them.


You can also update rates and set restrictions manually per day or room type. Click here to know more.
