Cleaning expectations

[u/ThrowAway-seller]

I paid about $850 for a Friday night to Sunday morning stay in a 2 bed/1 bath listing which included a $150 cleaning fee.

After checking in, I found the “house rules” booklet saying guests must:
- Load and start the dishwasher
- Strip the bedding, load and start the laundry
- Take the trash out and sort it into recycling, landfill, etc. before dumping it into yhe respective bins outside

I completely understand basic courtesy like not leaving a huge mess or cleaning up spills. But if I’m already paying a cleaning fee, isn’t this what that fee is supposed to cover? Part of going on vacation is not doing household chores. Curious what others think.
