Change the way "bunk beds" are designated.

It would be useful if in the ROOM section where we put in the bed counts in each bedroom, if we could check a box that indicates "this is a bunk bed" instead of adding a number count. 

That sounds confusing so let me clarify the problem.  We recently had to offer a discount to a group because they were expecting 16 beds in a house when really there were 11.  The confusion came into play because  one bunk was Queen over Queen, another was Twin over Queen, both with trundles..... and we indicated 3 queen, 1 twin, 2 trundle, '2 bunk'  because they were bunk beds.  The system pushes that over to Airbnb as though that bedroom had 3 queens, 1 twin, 2 trundles, and an "additional" 2 bunk beds.  We need a way to indicate when beds are 'in a bunk setup' because it's not always twin/twin. 

Alternatively maybe the notation area in those sections should allow for more characters so we can explain weird things like that. :-)  Thank you!

I agree.  We recently had the exact same scenario take place, which resulted in us having to discount the stay, and a poor rating in Airbnb.  What is the resolution for this?

I just had this same thing happen!! I didn't realize how it was coming up on the airbnb /vrbo platforms. I have many bedrooms with a Q and Twin bunks. There is no way to designate this. When I put in 2 twin and also checked bunk it made it look like there was 4 twin beds instead of 2.
