Should I tip my Airbnb host?

I am about to embark on my first Airbnb experience for a little over a week. I was wondering if it is customary or expected to tip the host upon departure or perhaps along the way, as it seems like they will be at the house while I'm staying there.

Best Answer

In general, you don't tip the owner of anything, let alone a landlord.

I have a Airbnb unit. You want to be nice to me?

don't damage the unit or the furnishings
if you have any problem, bring it up with me immediately. I had a guest last week who left his bicycle chained up in the pouring rain overnight rather than ask me for the combination to the garage.
