I wonder what would be their reasoning behind wanting to charge for a customer unplugging an Alexa. Why would it matter?


Lost earnings?

After all, you pay them $150/night but they also get $0.1 from Amazon that they just can live without...

I wonder what happens if you refuse to sign it


Someone has to come in and plug it back in, I’m assuming.


Right but doesn’t someone have to vacuum and clean the place anyway? Seems like the additional cost of adding “plug in the Alexa if it’s unplugged” to the cleaning checklist would be completely negligible.
