Rule Changes

Some hosts have threatened to leave the platform or raise prices, according to the New York Post, Euronews and ABC News. Hosts on Airbnb's forums objected mostly to the dishes ban.

Airbnb will bar hosts from asking guests to wash dishes, strip beds or haul trash off site on reservations made on or after November 20. Requests must be reasonable. Hosts can still ask for light tasks, such as gathering used towels, putting dishes in the sink or turning off the air conditioning.
