    And you’re not expected to do half the laundry, the dishes, and still pay a cleaning fee.

      Obviously I won’t trash the room, but if I’m paying a cleaning fee, I will not be cleaning…

      The places I’ve stayed are just:

      1. Put used sheets on the floor
      2. Put dishes in the dishwasher
      3. Take out the trash

      I do that anyway while staying there, except for the sheets (takes very little time), and I would probably do it anyway even if not asked (though I’d keep the sheets on the bed) because that’s just common decency imo.

      When I stay at hotels or rent cars, I do essentially the same thing, and I usually leave a tip because I know the cleaning staff get paid very little.

          Yeah, I think I’ve only seen a camera inside once or twice, and only in the living room/dining room. Hotels do the same in common areas like hallways and dining areas. It’s still not great, but it’s at least understandable.
