Who doesn’t like arriving into a clean and tidy space? A cleaning fee is a one-off charge for cleaning the space you stay in and is set by the Host. It’s an extra amount on top of the nightly rate when you book a listing. This fee covers the extra expenses Hosts incur when getting their place ready for guests to arrive or after they leave.
The cleaning fee is part of the booking total and is not returned to guests at the end of the trip. However, the cleaning fee will be refunded if you cancel before check in.
