This specifically including a photo of the government identification near the face of the guest to verify possession. That identification and individual submitting it must match the name of the person making the reservation. There are no third party bookings allowed, unless using the Airbnb business travel option. | Background Check | Please be advised guests will be asked to provide a birthday and current address required for a basic public records search for the primary guest on the reservation.

We ask that guests who are booking same day refrain from arriving before completing the pre-arrival form and confirmation that their reservation has been approved for check-in. | Locals | Due to restrictions placed on us by our landlord and as a condition pertaining to our ability to host, we are unable to accept reservations from guests local to the area (within 60 miles of the listing).
