@Kyle621 I would never expect guests to do more than wash their dirty dishes and clean up their personal messes. As a home share host, I really don't expect guests to clean anything, and I tend to get the kind of guests who leave their room and bathroom clean and tidy, mostly because they don't like living in a mess, so they keep their space clean their whole stay.
I leave a broom and dustpan up there, not because I want guests to sweep the floor, but because I live in a beach town, sand inevitably comes home with people, and I don't think it's pleasant to walk around on a sandy floor in one's bare feet. So it's for the guest's comfort, not mine.
Stripping the beds is a strange one - I don't quite understand why hosts ask guests to do that. It takes, what, 45 seconds to whip the sheets and pillow cases off the bed? And most experienced hosts actually prefer the beds not to be stripped- it's far easier to check for stains that might need pre-treating before washing if they're left on the bed.
I think if a host has cleaning expectations beyond not leaving the place dirty, the stovetop swimming in grease, and cleaning up personal messes, they should make that clear in their listing, so guests can choose to book there or not. It shouldn't be sprung on guests as check-out requirements after they arrive.
There are some listings where a few more cleaning asks are reasonable. Like a remote cabin, where it's super important that garbage be covered and well-secured, beecause of bears and other wildlife. And if a host leaves a day or two between bookings, meaning the cleaner might not come right away, taking garbage to the outside bin is important, as it could stink up the house badly by the time the cleaner got there. Nothing worse than dirty diapers or fish dinner leftovers left in an open garbage bag for a day or two 🙂
You sound like a really good guest, but some of the guests who think if they wash their dishes and gather up the garbage and wipe down the counters and stove, they are doing all the host's cleaning for them really need to be given a list of what cleaning an Airbnb entails, so they understand. Because it never occurs to them that hosts or their cleaners have to do nasty jobs like pull hair covered in soap scum out of the shower drains and deal with strangers' bodily fluids on bedding and towels.
