Cleaning is the single most reviewed criterion on Airbnb — three negative cleaning reviews can collapse a listing’s ranking. In Annecy’s competitive lake market, hotel-grade cleaning between every stay is what separates the top 10% of listings from the rest. This guide covers what hotel-grade cleaning means in practice, how Yes Conciergerie’s cleaning service works, the typical turnover schedule, and how it is priced for owners.
What hotel-grade cleaning means in practice
- Full kitchen turnover: degrease range hood, oven, microwave, fridge top to bottom, dishwasher
- Bathroom: descale tap fittings, mirror polish, glass-shower scrub, tile grout check
- Bedrooms: full bedding change, mattress check, dusting on every horizontal surface including light fixtures
- Living area: vacuum + steam where applicable, sofa cushion turnover, remote control sanitization
- Floors: vacuum + mop with a hospitality-grade product, full skirting board check
- Outdoor space: sweep terraces, balconies, BBQ check
- Final inspection: photo of every room sent to the property owner via app
Linen management — rented, not laundered locally
Yes works with a hotel linen rental partner around the lake. Sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers, bath sheets and hand towels are exchanged at every turnover with sealed, hotel-laundered packs. The result is a reliably 4-star quality regardless of the cleaner on duty, and zero risk of in-home laundry mishaps.
Turnover speed
Standard turnover is 2 to 4 hours depending on property size and stay length. We default to a 3-hour gap between checkout (typically 10am or 11am) and check-in (3pm or 4pm). For back-to-back stays in peak summer, our team can compress to 2 hours with a two-cleaner deployment.
Pricing
Cleaning fees are invoiced to the guest at booking, not to the property owner. The fee is set per property based on size, complexity and linen quantity (typical range: €60 for a studio, €120 for a 3-bedroom apartment, more for villas with outdoor spaces). The cleaning fee does not enter our concierge commission — owners receive 100% of the cleaning revenue minus the actual cost paid to the cleaning team.
