I am in Southern California, have been hosting for close to two years (Super Host status) with roughly 225 pretty darn positive reviews.
Obviously, all Airbnb‘s are different. We are just 2 miles to the beautiful beaches of Southern California, with an outdoor deck, barbecue and fireplace.
We ask that guests clean up after themselves, and charge only $20 for cleaning fees. In return, guests are supposed to do their own dishes, pick-up after themselves, clean-up spills, that sort of thing. I’ve never had an issue until the past few weeks. So many of my guests recently have been rude, ignoring the guidelines posted. I can’t think of another word besides “entitled.”
Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? It’s just been so many, it’s hard to ignore. I know this can’t be the case, but it almost feels as if Airbnb has started advertising differently.
I don’t know what is causing this major devolving of guests, but it is frustrating.
