It doesn't matter in these cases what the airbnb terms&conditions say, because the law is usually above them.
Good point! Everyone also forgets that Airbnb doesn't protect the property owner from obtaining proper insurance, permits, zoning, etc. (meaning: That's on YOU to research). If their house burns down, you get robbed, or you're injured, good luck getting anything as a guest at what is essentially an under-the-table hotel.
On the flip-side, California rental law says you must receive 30-days notice for eviction unless the property is licensed as a hotel or B&B, so stay the whole month! Enjoy!
