Can I file a noise complaint against an Airbnb?

Yes. File noise complaints with police each time, then separately report to the city's STR licensing division. Many cities hold the host/owner liable for guest noise, with fines of $500-$5,000 and potential permit revocation.

How do I find out if a house is an illegal Airbnb?

Check your city's short-term rental registry (many are publicly searchable). If the property isn't listed as a licensed STR, operating without a permit is a separate violation — often fined $1,000-$5,000 per day.
