But there aren't bounds on the duration of the stay. Many places will take you for 1 day or 4 weeks, and there is still just a single cleaning fee.

FWIW I think pretty much every vacation rental I booked pre-AirBnB (or, for that matter, pre-Internet) charged a cleaning fee in a similar manner.

Right, I'm suggesting duration bounds as a host-focused solution to a problem that's been frustratingly shifted to users. Better for the user experience to limit the stay to 3 nights (and thus removing it from results for single nights) instead of trying to put a $200 cleaning fee on an overnighter, IMO.
