Can an Airbnb charge you for smoking outside?

Unfortunately, you can't set a special Airbnb smoking fee to say something like, “No smoking, or there will be an extra cleaning fee.” You can't also make a charge against their security deposit. And if you want to allow smoking on your rental property, you should clearly define designated smoking areas.
