How does check out work in Airbnb?

There are no official steps on how to check in or out of a rental, and the process is mostly left up to the host. I have personally dealt with everything from key codes on doors, padlocked lock boxes, and keys tucked under floor mats to check into an Airbnb.

You are a guest and are paying to stay there, so you shouldn't feel like you should have to clean up everything.

Ask for a refund: If you need to request a refund because of the issue, there's a higher chance your Host will accept your request if you can agree on an amount first. Send a request to your Host for the refund in the Resolution Center and provide the details of the issue along with the photos or video.
