Washing and putting away dishes are examples of chores that Airbnb says guests should generally not be asked to do
Airbnb has changed its rules to limit what property hosts may ask guests to do - including when it comes to cleaning.
The updated guidelines state that hosts can now set seven standard house rules and can also add other "reasonable" requests.
The company said it may grant exceptions in some circumstances. For example, guests can be asked to limit shower time if there are local drought-related water restrictions.
