Unauthorized early check-ins or late check-outs are prohibited unless agreed upon in writing between guest and host. We do allow early check-ins if it is possible to do so. However, if 2 different guests are checking out and checking in on the same day, early check-ins and late check-outs cannot be accommodated because the cleaning team needs time to clean and prepare the home between stays. Unapproved late check-outs will be charged at $100/hour (30-minute increments).

Violation of any house rules constitutes a breach of this agreement and is cause for immediate eviction without refund.
