After chores, cleaning fees, and non-refundable deposits, is it really though?
Y'all speaking like 'chores' have you put in a maid outfit and deep clean their house.
Chores are 'leave the place in the state it was when you got in' and 'take your trash on the way out.'
Sorry my man but that's just common decency. If you're not a family of slobs that's like 10 minutes of light work before leaving. JFC.
I guess man, I'm just trying to offer alternatives. We travel enough that we like knowing what we're gonna get instead of having to worry if we're going to be the next horror story. The airbnb app makes a point now of assuring you that the price you see is all-inclusive of fees - now why would they do that, I wonder. Ultimately, we're probably some of the tidiest travelers. We just don't have time to worry about rules changing at each place depending on how badly the host wants to pocket that cleaning fee
I never had to pay extra fees or a deposit, from airbnb or any other like app. But then I put some research when I book where i'm going to spend my vacation.
Which is something you should be doing when booking hotels anyway.
I must be a less experienced traveler, never had a cleaning fee or a deposit.
With chores: I'm used to cleaning up after myself, I don't have servants at home and I feel weird at a hotel, not being able to do basic stuff such as washing a shirt, making myself something simple to eat or sweeping the floor if I spill something. And the experience of random people visiting my room when I'm not there and rearranging my stuff to clean up always makes me feel weird.
