Here are a couple of reviews I have received in the past month which have related to the cleanliness of my listing.

Wow, this is chalk and cheese, how can that be?
Now this is the area we are talking about which is scrubbed thoroughly between guests........
There is not a trace of a human hair, a fingerprint on the chrome, there is nothing in that bathroom that has not been scrubbed and sanitised.
95% of my guests agree, a few are neutral but, .08% make me look like a dirty host!
I would not care about this if Airbnb did not place such emphasis on the .08%, and concentrated a bit more on the 95%.
I thought I might lose my Superhost ranking last assessment as I thought my ranking might drop below the required 4.8 because of the number of perfect reviews I had which only warranted a 4 star rating.......
And still they are continuing! I can learn nothing from these reviews because they don't give me a hint of what I might have done wrong.....they tell me I did everything right but, Airbnb tells me I am not good enough, I need to improve!
This category star rating system is useless! It is useless to hosts and it is useless to guests......none of us can learn anything from it.
In the final analysis it boils down to how the particular guest woke up that morning, and what issues they might have going on in their lives at that moment.....they will look back kindly, or they will look for negatives!
Bloody awful way to run a business!
