Frequently asked questions
How much should I charge for an Airbnb cleaning fee?
Charge close to your actual turnover cost: typically $75-150 for a 2-bedroom depending on your market's cleaner rates. Padding the cleaning fee for profit backfires now that Airbnb shows guests the total price up front.
Do high cleaning fees hurt bookings?
Yes. Airbnb's total-price display means an inflated cleaning fee makes you look expensive against identical listings, and guests filter and sort by total cost. High fees also draw resentful reviews on short stays.
Should I build cleaning into the nightly rate instead?
For listings that mostly get 1-2 night stays, folding cleaning into the rate and charging zero fee often converts better. For week-plus average stays, a separate fee keeps your nightly rate looking competitive.
