Here’s one for you. Try and rent a house for cacweek on Cape Cod. Book through a local rental agency, there are many to choose from. Not only do the renters have to do all of the now forbidden rules of Air Bnb, they take their own sheets off the beds because almost 90% of the homes do not even offer bed linens or towels. Bring uour own or rent. So AirBnb guests on the Cape have had it easy.

@paulswaney3 It’s not better than other people. Having the rules holds guests accountable to how they treat the homes they are renting. Not all hosts are corporations. There are still so many places that are owned by individuals.

Take away rules = less accountability

Except for those that are still renting out their humble homes, mine as case in point. Just trying to hold onto a family home and renting it out offsets those costs. Not looking to make a profit. These scenarios still exist.

Since I am also the cleaner, these small asks, start dishwasher, strip bed, and take out the trash, add almost an additional hour of time to the clean and readiness. When checkout is 10 and check-in is 3, that makes for a very hurried turnover, especially when you a conscientious of leaving a very clean house for the next guests.

It is not unreasonable to ask guest to load the dishwasher and start it before departing. I mean while there they do the dishes etc, so why would you leave them for someone else. As a solo operator and the one who cleans, I've had guests not remove the trash, strip the beds and leave dishes. It typically adds an hour extra of cleaning time, which when you have tight turnarounds, it's a bunch of stress on the hosts doing the work. Sure we see the money for it, but in most cases renting out your home achieves the ability to pay for insurance, property taxes and other expenses, especially in the pricey vacation destinations Many people are renting out their homes during the summer to just cover their costs.

@TalvenTaurog @ABC Well I guess your rental requests will be denied every time.

[Bibi @cibifi]

@SaltLife_89 @MeghanMcCain Yep, looking at the new platforms as I write. AirBnb just shot itself in the foot

[Bibi @cibifi]

@Tankerboom10 @Shayna620 @MeghanMcCain Thanks for paying more in the future! Thanks for playing

[Bibi @cibifi]

I guess you support guests paying more. Cleaning fees are hidden, so now hosts will just jack up those fees. Guests pay more and AirBnb profits because they take 15.5% of all revenue charged by host, which includes cleaning fees, pet fees etc. Go ahead and clap, just hurts consumers.

In resort areas where houses list for several thousand dollars per week, there are several private rental agencies that list houses. These rules are strictly enforced throught the agencies and there are no freebies like linens etc. There are also people, who list on AirBnb at even higher rates. These rules that AirBnb specificallty mentioned are common and standard with private listings. Guess what, the cost of AirBnb's now just went up. Guests can't see the cleaning fees and those will now increase due to the extra time cleaning crews will need to do the additional small tasks. And for those who say just go to a hotel, well then just do that. AirBnb was traditionally set up where people allowed their homes and rooms to be rented. Homes owned by people, not corporations. These simple requests are a way for guests to help out their hosts and to minimize cleaning fees. In our area the average cleaning fee is about $300 for a nearly clean house. I've been a guest over 50 times and have always left the spaces as clean as when I arrived at no additional worry or annoyance. The guests have been fooled again and perhaps AirBnb will loose on this one.
