This includes the cost of additional cleaning if unit is left excessively dirty. And to pay for lost or missing keys and some parking permits. Guest must report any damages not caused by guest immediately after check-in. Guest shall notify agent upon check in regarding pre existing damage to rental unit. To honor 10AM Check-out and 4PM Check-in times. Sometimes due to reasons beyond management’s control a unit might not be ready by 4PM. If a unit is ready earlier than 4PM, guest may check in sooner as ready. Also rarely it might be necessary to switch units due to conflicts in reservations for reasons beyond management’s control. All efforts will be made to notify guest of any changes when time permits. If a switch occurs it will always be to a comparable or upgraded unit.
