BOOKING REQUIREMENTS:

Please let us know: Who is coming with you? How you know each other? Where do you live? What brings you to Vancouver? Are there any individuals under the age of 25? If so, please let me know who and how many of you there are.

We require our guests to verify their ID through Airbnb. and our booking guests' profile photo to match their ID verified in Airbnb.

We understand that 99.9% of my guests understand and will treat my home like it's their own, and treat it respectfully, but sometimes we have some bad apples and want to prevent and eliminate any problems.

HOUSE RULES:

However, smoking is prohibited within 6 meters of any entrance, window, or a building air intake according to provincial bylaws.

10. AC Units: Do NOT use the Air Conditioner Units at the SAME TIME as other appliances like the Vacuum, Kettle, Hair Dryer or your own Hair Straightener. Turn OFF AC Units if using these devices. • You could cause the breaker to trip, and the breaker panel is inaccessible • We don’t have access to the breaker panel from our Airbnb - the downstairs tenant needs to reset it, he is often not home or available to do this. If the breaker trips, the power to that circuit will go out and the Wifi, TV or other power outlets could not work for possibly 24 hours.

11. No parties in the suite, or loud noise after 10pm. The house is part of a townhouse complex surrounded by neighbours and a caretaker. The caretaker next door will call the police and us if there are loud noise disturbances or loud music late at night. You will be evicted. We will be notified by the neighbours immediately if there is any suspicious activity, or potential bylaw fines. These bylaw fines will be forwarded to you. A $1000 fine will be charged for each violation of our "No Party" rule, or if there are noise complaints from the neighbours.

12. Please make sure to take the Back Door / Garage Door key every time you leave the Airbnb for the duration of your stay A lost Back Door / Garage Door key will result in a $60 replacement fee, a lost Garage Remote will result in a $150 replacement fee, fees will be forwarded to you.

13. Please look at ALL the photos of the listing, and the description of the area and neighbourhood before booking. There is a homeless population in the neighbourhood. We do have young families with children living in our neighbourhood, but if you aren't comfortable with the homeless population, please don't book our place.

14. According to our insurance policy, we can't host more than 4 families at a time, and at least one of the guests of the group needs to be 25 years old or older.

15. Late Check Out: We may offer late check-out as an extra amenity for your stay. If we discuss late check out prior to your reservation start date, and we accept a late check-out for your reservation, your late check-out fee will be $145 CAD and your check-out time will be 12:30pm instead of 11:00am.

You may request late checkout on your own after your reservation starts. If you request late check-out on your own after your reservation starts, or if you request late check-out on the same day, and we can authorize a late check-out for you that day, the fee will be $185, and it will also be a late check-out at 12:30pm instead of 11:00am.

Requesting a late check-out earlier will increase the likelihood of us being able to accommodate it, but does not guarantee it. We cannot always authorize a late check-out.

If we do NOT authorize a late check-out, you cannot stay past your check-out time of 11:00am. If you do so without permission, that is considered an unauthorized late check-out, or an overstay, and a fee of $75 per 30 minutes will be charged.
