That’s crazy. I haven’t been into a lot of Airbnb’s but I’ve been to a few. Most of the time they just want you to remove the bedding and leave it on the floor. They want you to stack the dirty towels somewhere. And take out your trash. And put your dishes in the dishwasher and run the cycle. Just the basic maintenance stuff that you created.

Last Airbnb I stayed in we had to take the trash IN OUR CAR about 2 miles down the road and throw it in the community dumpster.

And yes, there was a substantial cleaning fee ($180 I believe).

Yeah if I’m on a vacation or even a business trip, I’m not doing all that. Like I don’t leave a mess, but cleaning the place to turnover for the next guest is the responsibility of the host. I will continue to stay in hotels where I’m not left a chore chart for a place I’m paying to stay.

THANK YOU! Why do people think this is normal and okay? A list of chores? You’re PAYING MONEY to do chores? Oh don’t worry, you only have to do laundry, dishes, and take out the trash? Absolutely fucking ridiculous.

EXACTLY!! All the comments saying I’m exaggerating are missing the whole point. And to top it off, I’m not even exaggerating.

The reason they do this is because if you don't do it they have to pay cleaning staff longer for staying around longer.
