We encourage Hosts to think carefully about their responsibilities. Hosting offers rich experiences, but it comes with a certain level of commitment. Our local responsible hosting pages can be a good place to start learning how to offer the best guest experience while complying with your local laws. In addition to the Hospitality Standards, here are some ways you can be a responsible Host.
As a host, it's your responsibility to be aware of and comply with all applicable laws, including local health guidelines. Our local responsible hosting pages can be a good place to start learning about these health and safety guidelines. Hosts should also follow Airbnb’s 5-step cleaning process between each stay.
