Sent an approval request on 33m2, but still no reply after a day?
You’ve found a room you like on 33m2 and sent an approval request. When the host doesn’t reply, it’s natural to feel more anxious as your move-in date gets closer.
"It’s been a day. Does it usually take this long?"
"What if I keep waiting and miss my move-in date?"
Knowing where your request stands and how long to wait can make your next steps much clearer.
Here’s how long 33m2 host approval may take, and what to do if you don’t hear back.
How does host approval work on 33m2?
It starts with an approval request
A 33m2 short-term rental typically follows four steps: ① request approval ② pay ③ confirm move-in ④ check out.
You choose your dates and send the host a room inquiry and approval request. The host reviews and approves it.
Once approved, you can pay. Your contract is complete after payment.
How long does 33m2 host approval take?
According to 33m2 customer support, approval can take 1~7 days.
Hosts review and approve requests themselves, so timing varies by room.
No need to assume you’ve been turned down just because you haven’t heard back after a day or two.
Will I be charged while I wait for approval?
No. On 33m2, you pay after your request is approved.
You won’t be charged while approval is pending.

No reply after a day? Here’s what to do
① Check how many days you have until move-in
② Message the host again with your preferred move-in date and stay length
③ Shortlist 2~3 similar rooms in the same area
④ Contact customer support if your move-in date is close
What to do based on your move-in date
Time until move-in | Recommended next step |
|---|---|
7 days or more | Wait a day or two, but shortlist backup rooms now |
3~6 days | Update the host in chat and get approval requests ready for backup rooms |
Within 2 days | Contact customer support and look for other rooms you can book right away |
These are suggested steps to help you move in on time, not official 33m2 rules.
If you request approval for multiple rooms at once, check before signing how things work if both hosts approve.
What if the 33m2 host rejects my request?
On 33m2, you pay only after approval, so you won’t have been charged if your request is rejected beforehand.
You’ll need to find another room for the same dates, so it helps to have backup options ready.
When can I reach customer support?
According to 33m2’s notice, phone support is available on weekdays from 10:00~18:00 (1877-3670). Phone support isn’t available on weekends or public holidays.
Outside those hours, send a 1:1 inquiry.

While you wait, explore plott LIFE too
The hardest part of a long approval wait is the uncertainty around your move-in date.
Having another option ready can make the wait feel much easier.
How does booking a room from an individual host on plott LIFE work?
For rooms listed by individual hosts on plott LIFE, you pay first. Once the host approves, your contract is complete.
The order of approval and payment is the reverse of 33m2’s, so knowing this before you book can help you understand where things stand.
Before booking, check the listing details and contact customer support to understand refunds if the host doesn’t respond or rejects your request after you’ve paid but before approval.
Details | 33m2 | plott LIFE rooms from individual hosts |
|---|---|---|
Approval and payment | Request approval → Host approves → Pay | Pay → Host approves → Contract complete |
Approval time | 1~7 days, according to their guidance | Varies by host; check in chat before booking |
If your move-in date changes
If approval is delayed, you may need to push your original move-in date back by a day or two.
33m2 contracts are by the week, so date changes need to be adjusted in weekly increments.
