Prompt Recreated prompt

The source didn't share its exact prompt, so we wrote this from what it describes.

Find and book an Airbnb that fits my dates ([DATES]), budget ([BUDGET]) and preferences ([PREFERENCES]). Show me your top pick with the total price and link, and wait for my OK before you pay.

Done when: the booking matches my dates and stays within budget.

Try this in:

ChatGPT Used in sourceGemini Grok

This prompt has blanks to fill in, like [DATES]. We'll copy it instead of filling it in, so you can edit it before you send.

Opens in a new tab. We don't see what you send.

These links are only a shortcut. We're not affiliated with OpenAI, Google or xAI, and your results may not match the source.

Optional stronger version

Our rewrite with extra checks. The poster didn't test it.

Goal: Find and book an Airbnb that fits my dates, budget and preferences, with my final approval.

Inputs (fill in or confirm):
- Destination, dates and guests
- Budget per night or total
- Must-haves (bedrooms, wifi, parking, pets)
- Neighbourhoods to prefer or avoid

Rules:
- Shortlist three with total cost including fees.
- Check reviews from the last year for cleanliness and accuracy.
- Check cancellation policy and check-in method.
- Avoid listings with few or no reviews unless I agree.
- Check the listing's calendar for the exact nights before shortlisting.
- Read the newest negative reviews and summarize any repeated problem.
- Check the full price with cleaning and service fees.
- Check the exact location on the map against my preferred areas.
- Confirm the host's rules on guest numbers match our group.

Checkpoint: Stop at the payment step; I confirm the booking.

If you get stuck: If login or verification is needed (including any CAPTCHA or two-step code), pause for me; never guess or store passwords.

Verify before you finish: Confirm dates and guests in the booking summary.

Output: Shortlist table and booking page ready.

Done when: I can book a well-reviewed place within budget.
