Many travelers on a budget who were seeking rest and relaxation and chose to stay at an AirBnb are realizing the option is no longer the ideal getaway they were hoping for.
The vacation rental site previously had a reputation for being an affordable option over hotels.
But with rising costs, threatening hosts and increasing instances of false advertising, lodgers are looking elsewhere to spend the night and their money.
Jet Cessant–TikToker @thefamousjet–touched on another complaint with a video in which he read aloud instructions left for him for his AirBnb lodging.
"All those fees for so many rules. Its a scam!" he wrote in the post's caption.
The text overlay in the viral video read:
“POV: you are reading the rules of an Airbnb.”
The instructions allegedly left for the TikToker were as follows:
“Welcome to our Airbnb! As a reminder, quiet hours are at 5 pm. We have a noise detector and will ask you to leave if you play any music or snore too loud."
The list also included instructions required of the lodger before leaving the premises.
“When you check out, please take out the trash, mop the floors, wash the dishes, do all the laundry, and make the beds."
The homeowner again indicated they were keeping a close watch on occupants ensuring rules are being followed.
"There are cameras in the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. We’re even watching you right now."
"Check-out is at 9 a.m. sharp. If you’re here at 9:01, you will be charged an extra night. We hope you enjoy your stay!”
Viewers were not shocked.
They believed paying the extra cash to stay at a hotel was more inviting.

People reflected on a different time when AirBnb was the obvious alternative to staying at a hotel.

When it comes to traveling abroad or just needing to get away for a change of scenery, housecleaning demands are the last thing on lodgers' minds.
Sometimes, it pays to pay a little extra for the benefits of staying at a hotel–where there are no hidden cameras and cats to feed.
