So, this should be fairly straightforward however does not seem to be playing ball with me and its now becoming quite annoying.

 

What I need to set is a 2-night minimum length of stay for a Saturday, that effectively ‘lifts’ on Thursday to allow one night stays.

 

It is currently set as this:

which according to help articles etc says that this will apply a minimum 2 night restriction if the guest is booking more than 3 days in advance, but not apply restriction if less than 3 days in advance? Am I misunderstanding? as all that happens with this is it stops anyone booking any stay that is includes a Saturday no matter how long in advance they book and closes channel managers for Saturdays entirely.

 

If i switch this round and do Minimum 3 days advance then it works as MLOS for Saturdays on channel managers but then doesnt allow saturdays to book one night on the day?

Hello ​@MattJones,

This is Dorothy from Mews. Per the screenshot, this is the restriction you have set: 

**Close the Stay for all Saturdays, except if the reservation is booked Max 3 Days in Advance and the length of the Booking is 2 Nights minimum.

So regarding “What I need to set is a 2-night minimum length of stay for a Saturday, that effectively ‘lifts’ on Thursday to allow one night stays.”

Here is how I interpret this (please correct me if I did not fully capture your needs): 

You often need to apply multiple restrictions in some cases.

Once you have reviewed the above, please let me know if this is what you are looking for or if we should vary the setup. 

Thank you. 

 


Hi ​@dorothy.roland,

 

So, we have a minimum 2 night stay every Saturday of the year. What we want to do is set it so that this only applies until the Thursday before the relevant Saturday.

 

For example, Saturday 10th is 2 night minimum for all stays. However when we reach Thursday 8th, a person can then book a 1 night stay for Saturday 10th (or on the Friday 9th or Saturday 10th).

So open for one night stays Sunday to Friday, and 2 night minimum for a Saturday until we reach Thursday at which point a 1 night stay for Saturday becomes possible to book. The above seems to restrict for all days.
