In my experience, I've had two skylights with no leaking for 20 years.
However, to the OP and as others have said, they are noisy when it rains but that's more of an issue if you have them in a bedroom, for example.
I've never cleaned a skylight but maybe because they are so high I just don't see the dirt?!
Anyway, cleaning has never been a consideration.
If you're going to do it, at least get the most bang for the buck by making sure you're oriented to the south or west and the angle is such that it's not too highly pitched given your roof.
