REFRIGERATOR: Check-in Day was most likely a check-out day for another guest. This means the fridge has likely been open for an extended time and cannot handle an overload of warm foods. It can take up to 24 hours for the fridge to cool down when filled with food. AIR CONDITIONER: DO NOT set the temperature to a super lower setting (below 70) as the unit will freeze up and could cause serious damage to the A/C unit! Turn on ceiling fans, lower blinds, and keep doors and windows closed. Do not operate A/C with the balcony door open. MAINTENANCE ISSUES: Report all maintenance issues promptly. Just as might occur at your own well-maintained home, mechanical failures and other breakdowns could occur. Every effort will be made to correct the situation; however, no refunds or rate adjustments will be made for mechanical failures. Maintenance technicians and vendors may access the property for purposes of repairing previously reported issues. CONSTRUCTION: The continued growth of our area is evidenced by new construction that may be adjacent to or near existing vacation rental properties. You may reserve a property at a time when no construction is nearby, but construction could begin prior to your arrival. We regret any inconvenience but cannot control these situations. Refunds or relocations cannot be considered. Internet: All of our properties have internet access. However, we do not guarantee internet connection or access due to service being provided by an outside third-party vendor, restrictions placed on internet services by personal computers, different connection specifications, and any additional factors that may lead to interruption, failure, or unavailability of internet service.
