I've not read the article because I refuse to give the Express any attention. They're only very slightly better than the Daily Mail, and that's only because their reach isn't as great. This article will almost certainly be coming from the perspective of "new things bad, old things good, so we'll sow a feeling of distrust in our aging readers", and I have no time for that shit.
But to answer the question; no, of course it isn't, unless, as /u/Hogger85 has said, the AirBnB owner has specifically banned EV charging. If they haven't, then it should be considered part of the cost of doing business and accounted for the same way they would any other energy usage.
and if they have banned EV charging they should realise nobody is going to honour that rule anyway and stop being such a dick, suck it up, and get on with running their airbnb like a normal person that doesn’t care about a few of £ of electricity per mo
At least in that situation they might win a court case on it.
