I am using airbnb only for family vacations in summer for 7+ days minimum, they offer way better prices than local hotels plus I can cook or dine at home (which you can't really do in hotel, so I don't get people complaining here about doing dishes and comparing it to hotel experience) without wasting time/money on restaurants (plus there are not really hotels in locations I prefer).

I try to leave airbnb in exact same condition as it was upon our arrival (obviously I am not washing sheets). After reading comments here I feel weird or is this difference between Americans and Europeans? Do HN readers like to live like pigs to stay in mess and leave mess after themselves?

edit: I checked my airbnb receipts and I see everywhere only Airbnb service fee, there is no extra cleaning fee on any of them, if they charged extra money for some cleaning fee maybe my approach would be different
