Sorry @Ben4894 , I know this doesn't fit the narrative you're trying to push, but I am both a longtime host in the US (since 2009) and have used both Airbnb and VRBO extensively as a guest over the last decade and a half, and I feel confident in asserting that MOST hosts do not require their guests to vacuum, scrub the bathroom, or do anything more than simply tidy up after themselves and lock up.
I ask guests to take the garbage out and start the dishwasher. That's it. My place takes 3-5 hours to turn over (deep clean plus maintenance, landscaping/yardwork, shoveling/plowing, transferring garbage to the dump myself). I charge a cleaning fee of $75, which I consider to be minimal. This helps to cover supplies and amenities (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, bubble bath, bath bomb, olive oil, salt/pepper/condiments, coffee, tea, etc.) and replacement items like towels, sheets, rugs, dishes, and glassware that inevitably get stained or broken. I clean my place myself so, after expenses I typically don't get paid the cleaning fee, but on occasion I have to hire it out, and it costs me $125. I am hardly rolling around on a cleaning fee bed of cash, lol!
I know you want to hate on Airbnb. Lots of folks do. And I'm sure there are some hosts out there who aren't great. (Chesky's determination to onboard millions of new hosts before improving customer service certainly is not helping things.) But there are lots of us who LOVE hosting, who LOVE sharing our spaces with guests, who LOVE traveling and living like a local. There are lots of us who take a ton of pride in these places, these homes, that we have curated for our guests. I truly want every single guest to have the BEST experience possible and I think you'll find more hosts feel that way than not.
If Airbnb isn't for you, that's ok. Hotels are awesome too. My lodging choices vary depending on where I'm going and how long I'm staying, though I always look at reviews and I'm always willing to pay a little more for a quality experience. (Which is perhaps why I have always had positive stays.) But please remember that there are a lot of amazing hosts out there who are working really hard for their guests, each and every day.
