Explained in plain English

Are Airbnb's rules enforceable?

Yes, Airbnb's terms of service form a contract between hosts, guests, and the platform itself. By agreeing to these terms when booking or listing, both parties are legally bound by them. If rules are broken, Airbnb can mediate disputes, issue refunds, or even suspend accounts, as seen with these new rules.
