May not be a forum for this.. but does anyone have an Airbnb?

They just sent this pic.. and my first reaction is - how do you find a cleaner who will "stage" this look? And how do you keep white couch clean

But I have pro cleaning experience

The pic is staged. The room won’t be upon arrival

The couch could be stain proof(Ed) or it will have stains upon arrival.

Pro cleaners for hotels “stage” each and every room. Can be done for Airbnb too I would hazard to guess.

Get graded for "accuracy.". i.e. did it look like pic. And no way will it always look like picture.

Dogs. When approving people to stay it's always a battle between " like the people and they love their pets". And " jeez look at this horrible hair, hope cleaners get it".
