How about theywranglein those cleaning fees and requirements. Even ebay eventually out a stop to $0.01 listings with $99.99 shiping and handeling. Im forever done with AirBnB after having a 20 step chore list for renting a condo for a weekend.

They need a rule making the chore list part of the listing.

Of they want to be a hotel, they need to do the work that entails.

I paid $3500 for a weekend at a 4 bedroom condo in a little christmas town. Took an hour to complete the bullshit list. I mean the condo was modern and pretty nice, but fuckif i’ll ever do that again.

3500 for a weekend is completely nutshit crazy?? You could have a nine star hotel with blackjack & hookers for that price.

No, there should be no chore list

Other than instructions on where to leave the key or how to lock up, there should be nothing else

Nah it’s fine as long as it’s all upfront. Personally i don’t mind doing a couple of simple quick chores -which i would like to be sure of before renting, and i know that some people don’t want to do any chores -which you should be allowed to filter out those listing. Everyone wins except the scamy userous airbnb hosts.

That’s how it started… Basic things like taking out the trash and it was worth it because it was so cheap and/or better value than a hotel

But now they want you to mow the lawn and you are often not saving anything… So there is no balance any more
