@saltandsage30a: Unpopular opinion: cleaning fees should be higher, not lower. Here's why before you come for me. A real thorough clean of a 3BR takes hours of skilled labor. Keep the fee artificially low to win search rankings and either the cleaner gets underpaid or the clean gets rushed. Neither helps the guest. I'd rather charge what it actually costs and pay my cleaner properly. Agree or disagree? Tell me below. @saltandsage30a #AirbnbHost #STRHost #CleaningFees #AirbnbTips #ShortTermRental

I’ll pay a cleaning fee, but I will not be told that I have to pre clean.

I clean my own Airbnbs. I charge $25 for my 2 bedrooms and $30 for my 3 bedroom. I have a super high guest rating. Also….i do everything myself.

yeah I think you're missing the point. it's not the fact that there's a cleaning fee, it's the fact that there's a cleaning fee and then you want us to clean for you. I've had Airbnb want me to take out the trash, and then take take the big trash can down the driveway and set it on the curb.

If you think I’m going to spend half my vacation day, cleaning somebody else’s house, you are out of your ever living mind. They should include the fee in the cost of the Airbnb rather than showing a low price and then tacking on fees, which is underhanded pricing in my opinion. Then they should hire somebody to clean it for them because it isn’t gonna be me.

I'm not paying for a deep clean of a property I spent one or two nights in. I stopped using airbnb a long time ago when the cleaning fee became more than a nights stay at a hotel and I was expected to do half of the cleaning

There shouldn’t be a cleaning fee at all. It should be built in to the rental price

If, and it’s a big if, I stay at a AirBnb and pay a cleaning fee I am not doing a single thing when I leave.

Cleaning is part of the cost of doing business. Part of the cost of me renting the location is that you need to clean it. I should not be paying higher cleaning fee or even a separate cleaning fee.

The cleaning fee should be built into the nightly rate

That’s what the rental fee is for. All the expenses to provide the service.

Yeah there is absolutely zero reason to spend 4 hours cleaning a 3 bedroom home after a 1 or 2 night stay unless the people completely trash it.

Hiding cleaning fees in descriptions rather than including it in top level search results is a bigger issue. Owners should provide a total cost and, optionally, break down the amount.

Cleaning fee should be ZERO. Your rate should reflect your cost of doing business.

This is exactly why I stopped using Airbnb, the “hosts” have overall lost their minds. A cleaning fee should only be for extra cleaning. Charging extra for standard operating procedures is crazy. Do you charge for the use of sheets? Is there a door knob fee?

I have no problem paying cleaning fees, but don’t ask me to do anything other than take the trash out.

Then maybe charge less for your rental fee. We stopped using rentals because of all the ridiculous fees
