Other things to note This apartment is on second floor. There is no elevator. You have to do a flight of stairs. As noted above, this apartment has a king bed and a sofa that flips down into a queen bed. Though it is not absolutely necessary, we appreciate a heads up in advance if you would like bedding for the sofa. PARKING POLICY ---- PLEASE note that free parking is AVAILABLE; however it is NOT GUARANTEED UNLESS YOU RESERVE IT! (available does not = guaranteed :) :) My landlord requires that I provide the color, make and model as well as the license plate number for any vehicle in the lot prior to arrival. Otherwise, my landlord reserves the right to tow the vehicle at the owner's expense, and/or issue fines. In order to reserve the parking space, i need this info. Otherwise, I assume you do not want the space (as I have found many guests do not) and i frequently rent the space to someone who lives across the street, so please do not be surprised if you see another vehicle in the spot if you did not reserve it prior to check in. Please note that my neighbors and my landlord are not shy about towing cars that are parking in the wrong spot and/or cars with a tire on the painted line. Please note in advance that this parking spot is relatively tight. It is possible to fit a large SUV or large truck into the spot, but it is then difficult to open the doors to get in and out. The spot definitely works better for smaller vehicles. IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE SIZE OF YOUR VEHICLE, PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT MY NEARBY PROPERTY WITH LARGER PARKING SPOTS!!! I have spoken to my landlord about it, and unfortunately there is nothing we can do regarding the parking lot here. Please note that, as the host, I reserve the right to charge a fee (without any warning, as no warning should be necessary) to any guests that chooses to check in early and/or check out late without my prior written consent. This typically creates major problems for the cleaning staff, and they do not have much flexibility in their schedule (not that any explanation of this should be necessary). Also, please note that parking in the parking spot is considered a form of “checking in early.” We feel as though this should be obvious and should go without saying, but please do not assume that you are entitled to park in the spot before 4pm, as our cleaning lady typically parks in the spot, and she has every right to leave for lunch, etc. and return before 4pm check in time. Fees generally start at 65$ for this, depending upon how much of the cleaning lady’s time has been wasted.
