I assume that the decoy router is the active router. So you'll know you've turned it off by e.g. the absence of the Netflix service you were planning to enjoy while staying in the AirBnB apartment.
How do you know that one of the remaining WiFi networks that you can detect (after unplugging the visible one) isn't providing connectivity for surveillance devices? I can't think of any easy way to do this. There could be a surveillance server+router in a crawl space or an attic, but you have to find it.
Better to treat whatever you say and do in the AirBnB apartment as compromised, if you are inclined to worry about this.
I'm not actually that curious to hear what 'compromised' implies in the typical AirBnB surveillance scenario. Is it just the possibility of creepy observation, or identity theft, blackmail, worse?
It's easy to come up with potential horror stories. The higher the stakes, the more incentive for the surveillance to be undetectable (where detectability would impair the attack).
