Online-Plattform: Airbnb-Vermieter dürfen kein Geschirrspülen mehr einfordern
Einige Airbnb-Vermieter fordern von ihren Gästen, vor Verlassen der Unterkunft das Geschirr zu spülen und die Wäsche in die Maschine zu stecken. Die Plattform will dem nun einen Riegel vorschieben.
San Francisco - Airbnb hosts will no longer be able to request that their guests wash used dishes and sheets before check-out, according to a new set of guidelines for house rules. The platform now only allows tasks deemed "reasonable." Guests can still be asked to place dirty dishes in the dishwasher and to collect used towels, but they cannot be asked to dispose of trash outside of the rental property.
Airbnb also maintains the possibility of making exceptions in certain circumstances, such as requiring guests to dispose of their waste in an animal-proof container in bear-populated areas. The platform charges guests a cleaning fee, and it does not want to impose tasks that would typically be handled by a cleaning staff. Additionally, hosts will no longer be allowed to prohibit guests from using amenities listed in the property description, such as an air conditioning unit.
The new rules take effect on November 20. Many hosts have criticized the new limitations on their house rules.
