Asking Airbnb to Refund Booking Fee for Cancelled Guest

I have a guest who had to cancel her reservation for March.  I don't mind her cancelling as she gave plenty of notice.  Airbnb retained $68 of her reservation fee.  Is there a way I can ask them to refund her?

That is how airbnb works - they never refund the fees with a cancellation.

Under the new policy they are rolling out they will. Well in some circumstances.

Your guest can contact AirBnB and ask them to refund the fee she paid.

Airbnb never became a $30 billion enterprise by refunding guests' service fees.  Good luck!
