No, the hosts set their own cleaning fee.  If you host in the US, Airbnb does ask if you support their Living Wage Pledge, which states that you pay your cleaners a minimum of $25/hour.  You don't have to check this box on the listing, but since most cleaners ask $25/hour minimum, you might as well check the box to show your support for that cause. Since the cleaning fee is determined by the host, you can inflate the cleaning fee to cover items such as soap, coffee, and other operational items necessary for your short-term rental. But be aware that when a guest sees your nightly price, that rate includes the cleaning fee (averaged over the number of nights they are staying).  So the higher your cleaning fee, the less competitive you will appear.
