Review Guest

post

https://app.hosttools.com/api/leaveReview/{reservationID}

Leaves the host's review of a guest after their stay, the same review the review message rules leave automatically. Works on Airbnb and VRBO. Booking.com doesn't let hosts review guests.

Airbnb takes comments (the public review, required) and star ratings for cleanliness, communication and house rules, plus whether you recommend the guest. Airbnb has no overall star for guests. VRBO takes star ratings for overall experience, cleanliness, communication and house rules, plus whether you'd rent to the guest again (recommend). VRBO reviews of guests have no text. A star left out is 5 stars and recommend defaults to true.

The reservation must have source "Airbnb" or "VRBO", status "accepted", and a check-out date in the past. Channels take a review from check-out until 14 days later. Requires the reservations:write scope.

On success the reservation's hostHasLeftReview is set, and a review message rule for the stay won't leave a second review.

Too many requests

200The channel took the review

400Invalid request: unknown reservation, a reservation that isn't yours, a reservation that isn't from Airbnb or VRBO, missing comments on Airbnb, comments on VRBO, ratings.overall on Airbnb, a rating that isn't a whole number from 1 to 5, or a disconnected channel account.

405The channel refused the review. Its reason is in message.

409The guest can't be reviewed right now: the stay isn't booked, the guest hasn't checked out, you already reviewed them, or the channel isn't taking a review (reviews open at check-out and close 14 days later). message says which.
