I don't think this is supposed to be お休み

In the Genki textbook, the word shown is おやすみ(なさい), meaning “Good Night”. Is there a place I’m supposed to go to report errors like this?

お休み is indeed short for おやすみなさい, but it’s also the polite form of 休み, meaning holiday, day off, or just rest in general.

If there is anything else you need to report the bug thread is usually a good place to put things like this. If it is about an individual sentence then then i think they prefer for you to use the report button that shows up.

So does that mean it would be correct to add “good night” to the synonyms?

Not for that entry. Note the Type of Word section: it’s marked as a noun. There is a separate entry for お休みなさい.
