Airbnb bans 'unreasonable' guest check-out chores
Airbnb has introduced new check-out rules prohibiting hosts from requiring guests to complete chores like stripping beds, washing dishes or taking out rubbish before departure. Guests can still be asked to perform simple tasks such as leaving dishes in the sink and gathering used towels. The policy change, applying to reservations made after November 20, addresses longstanding traveller complaints about chore expectations combined with cleaning fees, though hosts warn it may lead to increased prices.
