I'm a Chinese. I'm both Airbnb host and guest, and I live in different countries and experienced different cultures. I would like to share some tips about hosting Chinese guests/expecting their certain behaviors.
- 95% Chinese follow rules well - if you tell them "DO NOT..., OR..." clearly, they will follow.
- 95% Chinese are peace and cooperative - no violence/always try to avoid conflict.
- 95% Chinese like cooking Chinese food in your kitchen/making hot tea - expecting grease and smell/smoke.
- 95% Chinese don't have the habit giving tips - never part of their culture.
- 95% Chinese don't have body odor - they don't use strong cologne.
- 90% Chinese clean up the room before they leave.
- 90% Chinese take shower before going to bed - they may use more water than other guests.
- 90% Chinese use your washer/dryer/laundry - leave detailed instruction or they may break your machine.
- 90% Chinese adolescent are shy/quiet, but kids under 10 years old can be loud - some Chinese parents never trained their kids to be quiet/wait.
- 90% Chinese are fine if you wanna check up their room to see if they break anything before their departure.
- 90% Chinese are rich/highly educated (if they can get the visa and afford air ticket to travel abroad), but that doesn't mean all of them are generous/polite/speak English well... because of the cultural differences/personal reasons, some nice/sweet Chinese can be rude in certain ways/seem to ignore rules (maybe they don't understand/never paid attention).

Ps. Let me know if there's anything I could help.
