Yes, you have to make effort to show that you are not going to trash my house. Its not a hotel.

If you don't want strangers in your house --- and I sure don't either --- don't try to capitalize on it on Airbnb.
- ArtDev 10y agoIn my town the permitting process for vacation rentals is quite different than hotels. I have a very expensive permit ($2300 for the first year) and jumped through all the hoops. We pay occupancy tax, etc. What makes it most different from a hotel is that we have to vet our guests. We won't take anyone off the street. This is perfectly reasonable and also different from a hotel. I do hope that cities avoid passing laws around vacation rentals. The law is our town is an expensive illogical nightmare.
- DrScump 10y agoThe problem is assuming that a guest is "questionable" based solely on appearance.
