No Smoking Rules VRBO, AirBnB - Vacation Rental Mailbag


No smoking rules apply to all VRBO, Airbnb and short-term rentals. Today's vacation rental mailbag answers house rules for a no smoking policy.

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says the host should mention it in the listing. "No smoking, no vaping or there will be an extra cleaning fee." (This means extra chemicals or an ozone generator for odor removal.)

You can still make it welcoming to a guest to smoke out back with a designated smoking sign. Include a decorative outdoor ashtray so you don't have to pay a landscaper to clean up cigarette butts.

Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsor is Savvy Cleaner (training and certification for house cleaners and maids.) And the Community at TurnoverCleaningTips.com

Sure, it may need vacuum repair, and you can apologize and be honest but set realistic expectations upfront. Replacement parts for old household items don't fall on the cleaning business owner or their employee. When the maid arrives to clean the vacuum and toilet should be in working order. And they should leave them in the same condition.
