How do towels work at an Airbnb?

However, most Airbnb hosts will provide you with towels since it's a basic amenity that all guests require. Since you'll likely not carry your own towel, hosts provide you with towels to increase your chances of booking with them and to improve their rental's reputation with a positive review from you.
