I agree that the "clean the property or pay us a ridiculous amount" fees are stupid, and in your instance I would have gone full malicious compliance.

However, AB&B has it's place, and most of the time is for extended stays with either a specific requirement or something you are explicitly wanting (lakefront, etc). I travel a lot, and only do AB&B or VRBO when vacationing with the full family and dogs.

IMHO that and staying with lots of friends or colleagues are the only valid reasons for AirBnB by now. I travel a lot and do appreciate the service level, not having to clean and having things like a gym, a pool and a working printer where I stay.
