Other Things to Note:
To help ensure a smooth, secure, and enjoyable stay for all guests, please review the following important information before booking:

Check-In & Identity Verification Policy

All reservations require the primary guest (the booker) to complete a secure online check-in process prior to arrival. This includes:

-Uploading a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID
-Uploading a selfie to confirm identity
-Reviewing and signing our rental agreement

This process is similar to hotel check-in and is required because we do not typically have staff on site. Check-in instructions will only be provided once this process is complete.

If you would like to review the rental agreement before booking, please feel free to contact us.

In some cases, we may also request a security deposit and/or apply a damage waiver fee in accordance with booking channel policies.

* It typically takes ~1 hour to screen a guest after they book this property and could take several hours if we are busy before we are able to provide them with check-in information.

If you make a last minute reservation, we ask you to please be patient and please do not expect to gain access to the property immediately.

For safety and compliance purposes, exterior security cameras are used to verify occupancy. Unreported additional guests may result in additional charges.
