So the result looks like this.. rather than listing two rooms, I now have 1 room with multiple rates, depending on how many will stay. ( Maximum of 6 )
We have 2 rooms for rent, with only one bathroom upstairs - so if we get one booking we 'close' the other room. with 1 double bed, 2 single beds, and an extra mattress we can sleep up to 6 people and this booking would take up both rooms.
The Solution ? We list it as a 'holiday Home' - and list all the beds we have, as if they were in the same room. this way yhe site gives me 'price per guest' - not per room.
So I list the room rate for 6 people then discount 15% per person ( less than 6 people )
this is what booking.com calls - " Derived Pricing "...
the problem is - you need to do this when you create your account - or contact booking.com and ask them to add this option to your accunt.
How can I set or update room rates for different occupancies?
Les Moutiers-les-Mauxfaits, France - 1 property found Les Arcs, France - 261 properties found. ( So I need help to figure out yours. )
Based in your first property: My only other suggestion, some of the photos seem dark ? - maybe shoot some new photos?, on a bright sunny day for outside shots, Then try to avoid shooting 'windows' - for brighter indoor shots, shoot with the window behind you. Or set your exposure for the room, not for the window. Better to over expose - for a brighter room.
let me know your second property address, if you want more feedback.
Good Luck, and I hope you are getting better results soon.
I'm not sure how to search for property by ID... is this your property ? "SCI Les Chuans" ? - I did a search by 'area' listed on your profile. ( just 1 result. )
I think it's more of a 'numbers' Game now... better numbers = higher result in the search.
you ( like me ) Only have 2 reviews listed, so you have no property score, it could be the site is promoting 'other' properties over yours... but yours should still be listed in that area.
Also, performace 'Scores' - I'm being told that my price are not 'competitive' enough, and if I don't make my rooms cheaper - I will loose my 'Prefered Partner' Status... then they will not charge me 18% per booking... ( but revert back to the original 15% ) - and I will need to wait 180 days to re-apply. - there is not much competition in my 'area'... so I really don't see this as a bad thing. Also - Other properties here are very cheap, but lower quality - so this is pulling my price point down to unfair position for what I am offering.
Maybe invite 3 groups of friends to visit and give you a review, this will get you a 'review score' to compete with the rest of the listings...
Please confirm if that was your property - and I'll try and find your other location, and add any comments I have related to that.

if you are curious, and know how to find it... ( if there is a way to find it ? )
just an idea... why not create a New Property Listing ?
If google maps has been updated, and Booking.com can't or will not edit your map location.
Create a new property listing - and specifiy 'exactly' where you want to be on the map, and see how you get on this time ?
Good Luck, and please let us know if that works.

But you can't do it yourself - you need to ask them to do it...
( or setup a new 'room' - and select this option when you create the 'room' )

I have a similar problem, and found a solution.
