Even if they were willing to let me examine their entire network (Comcast router, Apple Airport in our Airbnb unit, other router?) I have no idea what kind of tar baby I would be touching. I don't want to become their network admin for the rest of time.

By now most home routers do have option for some form of QoS but may default to disabled.

The problem with interacting with mortals on technical topics is that you create a debt.
It is often a multi-hour effort to resolve and the expectation is that this is free.
So doing it for relatives (of course), fixing a local coffee shop where you know the owner (sure),
but dealing with a one time AirBnb doesn't seem worth it.
