Being faced with an endless list of chores when it’s time to check out of your Airbnb stay isn’t the best way to end a holiday. Facing complaints from travellers, Airbnb is changing the rules to limit what hosts can ask guests to do before checkout. The new policy starts on November 20. From November 20, hosts will need to re-check and revise their checkout chores to ensure they are simple and reasonable – and not “onerous”.
