Should I strip the bed in an Airbnb?

Strip the bed and group dirty linens together. However, it's not necessary to make the bed or fold any linens, as your host will throw them all in the wash anyway.

It is up to the discretion of each host to determine whether or not to charge a cleaning fee, although it is worth noting that the charging of a cleaning fee is a common practice on Airbnb.
