All guests must arrive within the check‑in time frame listed on the property description. I personally greet every guest, and I do not offer self check‑in or keypad access. 2. In‑Person Check‑In Requirement For the safety of all guests in this shared home, I require that everyone on the reservation be present for check‑in. Just like hotels, all guests must present a government issued ID upon arrival. 3. Agreement to Policies By confirming a reservation, guests acknowledge and agree to follow all check‑in policies outlined in the listing. Planning your arrival accordingly is appreciated. If guest(s) do not adhere to these guidelines, the reservation is subject to cancellation without any refund. 4. Respecting the Check‑In Window Because I manage all check‑ins myself, late arrivals outside the designated window are not possible. Unlike hotels with 24/7 staff, I do not have the ability to accommodate arrivals at any hour. If a guest books travel that arrives past the latest check‑in time, an additional late‑arrival fee may apply. $25/hour for each hour after 10 pm. The latest check-in time is 1 am. If flights are delayed, proof of travel delays (email from airline or similar documentation) is required in order to waive this fee. 5. Arrival Time Required 24 Hours in Advance Guests must provide their planned check‑in time at least 24 hours before arrival. If the reservation is a last minute booking (less than 24 hours before earliest check in time), guest(s) must provide your check-in time within 1 hour of confirmation of reservation. Frequent changes to arrival time can disrupt my schedule, so guests must provide a confirmed arrival time and adhere to it. 6. Early Check‑In Early check‑in may, on occasion, be available. However, it must be requested and approved at least 24 hours in advance. Due to personal commitments, early check‑in is not guaranteed and is subject to a fee. 7. Same Day Bookings For same‑day bookings, check‑in timing depends on my availability, as I may already have commitments. I’ll provide the earliest possible time, but a specific check‑in time cannot be guaranteed for bookings made less than 24 hours in advance.
