Guests Keep Complaining About Cleaning Issues in My San Diego Rentals
No matter how much I try to stay on top of it, my cleaning crews keep missing things in my San Diego Airbnbs. Guests mention dust, towels not replaced, or supplies running low. It’s hurting my reviews, and I can’t be everywhere at once. I need a system that keeps turnovers spotless without me managing every step.

Hi Jasmine, it is nice to see you here. 😉
Thank you for sharing! 🌿
I feel your pain—Airbnb turnovers can feel like running a relay race where someone keeps dropping the baton. Guests don’t see the effort behind the scenes; they only notice the dust on the shelf or the missing towel. That gap between effort and perception is brutal.
Here’s a twist: instead of just “cleaning crews,” think of them as experience stewards. Imagine each turnover as a micro‑ritual: a checklist that isn’t just about wiping counters but about staging the space for delight. You could gamify it—points for spotless corners, badges for perfectly folded towels, even a leaderboard across your properties. Suddenly, crews aren’t just
cleaning; they’re competing to craft five‑star moments.
Layer in tech: QR codes in closets that log supply levels, smart sensors that ping you when paper towels dip below a threshold, and a shared dashboard that turns invisible chores into visible wins.
You’d move from firefighting to orchestration.
The bigger idea? Build a system where your properties practically “self‑report” their readiness. That way, you’re not everywhere at once—you’re everywhere at scale.
Let’s sketch this out together. If we can turn turnovers into a game + a system, your reviews stop being a liability and start being your growth engine.
