Should I wash dishes before leaving a serviced apartment?

In all apartment rental contracts I have ever read, it was mentioned you would be expected to wash the dishes you used, also on the last day.

Maybe high cost hotels have different rules, but where I rented they would not re-clean all dishes in an apartment. And I would not expect to leave dirty dishes on the side of the side of the sink.

Cleaning after you have left should be in the same range as a normal hotel room. That means that if you used a cup or glass just before leaving, you can leave that out. But not all the things used for cooking a dinner or cooked breakfast.

Of course it simply depends on the arrangement of that facility. But in general…

With most serviced apartments, there is a “departure cleaning fee”. (Often this fee is quite high.)

You should check if you will be paying one.

This is of course how they get the apartment spotless, for the next customer. So, when you entered the apartment, it would be no good if only the previous person cleaned-up! Naturally, the business cleaned the flat professionally for you before your arrival.

If you paid for a car wash, there would be little point in washing the car yourself; if you paid to have your hair cut, you wouldn’t cut it first!

If you’re paying a (often very high) “departure cleaning fee”, then perhaps just tidy up.

Cleaning the dishes is no different from cleaning anything else in the flat. They have to completely rewash the dishes, so they are perfect for the next person, anyway. If you vacuum, clean the dishes, or clean the toilet, they have to do those things anyway.
