Airbnb Host Charged an Extra Cleaning Fee - Is That Legal?

The Airbnb host charged an extra cleaning fee after the Airbnb guest left. Can they do that? There is a cleaning fee collected at the time of the #VRBO or #Airbnb booking.

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says if the Airbnb host charged an extra cleaning fee it's valid.

If the housekeeper or maid service has extra work, or if they have to call in a pest control service there will be an extra cleaning charge.

If the Airbnb host charged an extra cleaning fee it's for cleaning. It's not a damage deposit or part of the nightly rate, or standard amenities. It's all in your vacation rental contract.

Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsors are Savvy Cleaner. (Training and Certification for house cleaners and maids.) And TurnoverCleaningTips.com (A hub for the Airbnb host, superhost and their cleaning partners.)
