1 star. Nice apartment, awful host. Yet another cleaning fee scammer. $78 cleaning fee paid, yet told I have to (1) collect and take trash to an outside dumpster and (2) wash all the dishes. (pull linens as well, but happy to do that). Wondering what a cleaning fee covers if not taking out the trash and dishes. When I asked John if cleaning fee would be adjusted for work on dishes and trash, the response received (verbatim): Hi -, It wont be - but if you want to vacuum, an mop all floors, wipe down all surfaces, clean toilets, showers, make the beds with fresh linen and make the apartment ready for the next people staying in it then sure - happy to refund you $78.
Thanks, John."
This isn't because of COVID, nor is it because of inflation or being a 'small business' - it's because of greedy, lazy hosts. Someone should (and will) hold you acountable as it's a rip off. Cleaning fees are for cleaning, not a revenue source. Better places to find in Edinburgh.
