Hi Mary
I can’t agree that a cleaning fee is rude, allow me to explain my guests generally leave my apartment clean in the conventional sense, it’s not clean enough for paying guest everything in the apartment need to be checked you don’t want your next guest to find a used prophylactic under the bed, or the bin in the toilet unemptied, taps need to be shined and consumables replaced, beds need to be stripped and remade with fresh bedlinen, Mary all the usual stuff.
It takes me three hours to prepare my apartment for the next guest and I have no problem charging this fee, I would have no problem including it in the price if I could do this job while my guests are still in the apartment said with tongue firmly in cheek.
So, Mary please reconsider the cleaning fee as a necessity.
