Peerspace’s cleaning standards

Now more than ever, a clean space matters. We’ve given hosts guidelines to help keep their spaces clean.

All hosts are required to do the following prior to each booking:

  • Sweep, mop, vacuum and clean the space
  • Supply a hand washing station with soap, warm water, and paper towels or hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol
  • Clean all common areas guests can access including bathrooms, kitchens, and entrances
  • Collect and clean dishes, silverware, and other provided host amenities, if applicable
  • Remove garbage and add new lining to cans

Recommended steps in addition to the standard cleaning protocol:

  • Limit guest count based on state and local capacity guidelines
  • Space out bookings to allow for enhanced cleaning
  • Disinfect high touch surfaces and shared amenities such as light switches, door knobs and coffee machines with EPA-approved products
  • Properly clean or remove soft, porous materials
  • Schedule a licensed professional cleaner to come between bookings
  • Provide a supply of disinfecting wipes, disposable gloves, or disposable masks for guests
  • Reconfigure the space or add markers to allow for physical distance

Hosts have the ability to add details about how they clean their space and what cleaning amenities they have for guests. Keep an eye out for these details on the listing page:

  • Cleaning protocol
  • Physical distance
  • Protective gear
  • Signage
  • Sanitizer
