Short-term rental guests follow the same noise rules as any resident. Nebraska requires cities to treat STRs like similar properties, so Papillion's 55 dBA overnight limit and the county's disturbing-the-peace law both apply.
Neb. Rev. Stat. §18-1758 directs municipalities to apply noise and nuisance rules to short-term rentals the same as any comparable property: no special STR quiet hours, but no exemption either. In Papillion that means the 70 dBA daytime and 55 dBA overnight standard applies to guests. In unincorporated Sarpy County, a loud rental is enforced as disturbing the peace. Repeated verified complaints can support a nuisance case, so hosts are wise to set house rules and provide a responsive local contact.
Guests and hosts face the same noise citations as residents, generally $100 to $500. Chronic problems can be pursued as a nuisance in county court.
