That's the reason why I now only use Hotels in USA. I loved airbnb a few years back in the USA but now it's almost double the price as a hotel.

Can we just clean it for 2 days by ourselves, and stay 2 days for free.

What's number 9 meant to be?

Honestly, the best thing to happen for the housing market would be a complete collapse of Airbnb and all those investors that bought homes they don't use to use as Airbnb rentals. Also looking at you apartment owners that rent out apartments for airbnb. Airbnb has been a massive contributor to the global housing crisis causing expensive homes and way too high rents

One of these by themselves is fine, but together? What are you even paying the service fee for????????????????

It's like home delivery for take away food. Used to be cheap. Then they started adding minimim order, delivery fees, and service fees and charges. The total of the fees is almost the same as the food total

How in the WORLD do they justify a booking fee when THE BOOKING IS DONE THROUGH AN APP?!?

I hope you found somewhere else

For $200? It better be cocaine

How about no

"Leave a tip on top of the fees we charged you, but don't be like that other tipper that we mock to other guests for not meeting our tipping standards! No need for us to thank you for your generosity as a closing to this note; shaming and bullying you into leaving more money in addition to what we already collected should do the trick. Come back again!"

Does this host even get guests with that kind of skewed invoice system? (I'm certainly not booking this one!)

Michigan time? I live in the part of Michigan that is in central time or do they mean the part of Michigan that is in eastern time? What in the seventh level of h*ll is Michigan time.........lol

Sure I'll pay you to make me clean this place!

This looks like it might be somewhere remote, hence the "bear box". Leaving dirty dishes can lead to animals like, well, bears, smashing into the house / cabin / whatever. Same with the BBQ. Even if it's just for a few hours.

build the service and cleaning fees into the price

The service fees going to AirBnB, the taxes goes to government (it’s the same fees charged at a hotel)

I want to know what the "service fee" is on all these. I'm done with AB&B anyway after spending four nights in Galveston, Texas (100+ degrees and only getting down to the mid 80s at night) where we were paying $150 a night for a unit smaller than a hotel room with a window unit that couldn't keep it any lower than 82 degrees at night. All this and claimed it was walking distance from the beach (yeah, if you're willing to walk 11 miles). Whole list of cleaning demands AND a steep cleaning fee. This is not the first time we've been cheated by

You know who else is infamous for this nonsense? Ticketmaster. You know what words have never been uttered in the same sentence? "Wow, I really love Ticketmaster." Especially after you spend 20 minutes navigating through the ticket buying process just for a fee that is often more expensive than the tickets you're trying to buy. AirBnB is just as annoying and shady.

No the wild part is when they give you a list of cleaning chores to do before check out on top of that fee. Lol

These reminders seem perfectly reasonable...turn off the lights, don't leave trash out in the open, what's wrong with that? Even the cleaning fee is not crazy. But the reason I'd never choose this place is because of their $205 service fee. $205 for what? To use an app? I'd choose a hotel instead.

Greed, pure and simple greed.

Hôtels will be happy to get customers back 👍

Definitely worth a phone call! 1-844-234-2500

Should change the name to AirAndBeRippedOff

For 400$ a night you can stay at a 5 star hotel.
