Never used an AirBnB and never plan to. The whole “you have to clean up after yourself” part is a major turnoff for me. I go on vacation to relax, not clean. I rather pay a little bit extra for housekeeping.
I mean, yeah you’re expected to be respectful of the space you’re using. If you make a mess, you’re expected to clean it up or pay an extra cleaning fee. There’s a really easy way around that though - don’t make a mess. Seems reasonable to me.
Not making a mess is fine. However, I don’t make my bed at home. I don’t want to do it when I travel. Messy bedsheets don’t bother me. I don’t want more responsibility when I travel than I have at home.
No Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in has mandated that the beds be made.
Right, but hotels don’t expect you to take out the trash, wash the towels/bedding, or wash the water cups/ice bucket. Even if you don’t make a mess you still often have to do those things on top of the cleaning fee you’re paying.
Every Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in doesn’t make me do any of that. Obviously if the trash gets full, I’d take it out, but it’s never been a requirement. The furthest I’ve ever had to go with bedding/towels is to remove them from the beds and pile them up on the floor. Similar with dishes, I’ve only ever had to put them in the dishwasher, never wash them myself.

You pay extra at AirBnB to clean up yourself regardless. They all charge a cleaning fee of $100-200. Plus “Fees” if you don’t do all of the cleaning yourself. It’s total nonsense. The price is more hidden than a damn phone bill.
