Airbnb has updated its rules: from November 20, guests cannot be asked to perform tasks that require 'significant effort or time, or are normally part of a cleaner's duties,' such as washing dishes.

Otabek YusupovAirbnb has updated its rules for hosts: starting November 20, they may not require guests to do work normally performed by a housekeeper — stripping bed linens, taking trash off the property, or washing and putting away dishes. Hosts will also no longer be able to fine guests or bar them from using listed amenities.
Javlon TursunovAirbnb has updated its rules: for bookings from November 20, 2026, hosts will no longer be able to require guests to strip bedding, wash dishes or take out the trash. Only 'reasonable' requests are allowed, fines are banned, and disputes over damage compensation are handled through Airbnb's insurance. Some hosts have already expressed dissatisfaction with the change.

If at least 1.5 mm of precipitation falls per hour between 8:00 and 20:00 at the place of stay, the traveler receives a payout from €50 to €1000 per day. Rain data is taken automatically from NASA, ECMWF and NOAA — no paperwork is required.
