Guests are expected to treat the property with reasonable care. You are responsible for any damage beyond normal wear and tear caused during your stay. Please report any pre-existing damage or maintenance issues upon arrival.

• Damage to the property, furnishings, appliances, or fixtures will be deducted from the security deposit. If damages exceed the deposit amount, the guest will be charged for the remaining balance.
