How often should you change sheets on Airbnb?

Sheets: If you've got a high occupancy rate year-round, aim to replace your sheets every 6-12 months at least. If you're not booked as frequently, once a year should do it. Obviously, if you find any kind of ripping or tears or if stains pop up on your sheets, toss them out immediately and replace them.
