Changing a room or unit name
You can request to update a room or unit to one from our list of standard room and unit names.
Standard room and unit names help keep information clear and consistent for guests across our platform – and in all 43 languages we offer. Research shows that standard room and unit names also help to generate more bookings. You can still describe any additional features and special details in the room or unit and property descriptions.
