Post: Best Practice for Refunding guests who cancel STR reservations

Looking to hear some best practices on dealing with guests who want refunds even with a signed policy stating a certain refund % amount within a period of time prior to arrival. All guest will indicate some sort of emergency as to why they need to cancel and want a full refund. What actions do you take, I understand Airbnb favors the guests not the hosts so much.
How to handle cancellations?

I've heard the Nest thermostat detects homeowners habits which is not good for STR use. Has anyone else heard this?

Hello everyone! I am currently researching STR software to handle up to 20+ properties, in the future. I like YouPorter App but wanted to ask everyone's experience on this software and compare it to others. (Hostfully, smatrBnB, iGMS) Any recommendations?
Would like a program that integrates with others and I'm looking for dynamic pricing.
Thanks!
