Why wouldn’t you clean the sheets regardless after each stay?

But everything else seems reasonable. If a host left a note explaining the reasoning behind the dishwasher and the trash, I would understand completely.




6 beds (comprising of 4 different sizes of beds/sheets) make it quite wasteful if a bed is not used. It already takes ~5 hours to clean the home.


Ewww…hosts like you are the reason Airbnb gets a bad rap. I don’t think any reputable hotel would find it ok to not clean the sheets on both queen beds in a room if only one “looked” used. Logistics of cleaning should be built into your pricing and scheduling and not be a chore or something the guests have to think about.


I have a 4.99 rating with almost 100 stays, which seems to be telling me I don’t have a bad rap. In the end, it is my cleaners’ responsibility to leave my house ready for the next guest.


You've never seen hotel staff clean a room, lol. You'd be surprised.


I would take the side of sanitation than taking a chance on having used sheets on the bed


My existing solution does, by asking guests to remove the sheets.

Obviously, if no sheets are removed, they would all be cleaned.


And if your guest don’t remove the sheets after they sleep on them?


I pay my cleaners to make sure the home is clean. Simple as that.
