The parking situation is a nightmare. I got a 30 parking ticket even though I parked in the proper zone because I did not have a sticker

Thank you for your feedback. We do want to clarify that the parking concerns described are not an accurate reflection of the situation. Our welcome guide clearly explains the parking requirements, including the need to follow all posted street signs and restrictions. I also personally called you during your stay to review the instructions and make sure everything was understood.
Despite this, your vehicle was parked directly under a posted restriction sign, which resulted in the citation. This was not due to a lack of information or unclear instructions, but rather a failure to follow the guidance that was provided before and during your stay.
Unfortunately, this was not the only issue during your visit. The welcome guide contains detailed instructions for parking, locking the home, and checkout procedures, yet multiple instructions were not followed. The property was also left with damage, including damaged blinds/curtains, a dropped hair dryer, and furniture moved out of place, which required us to submit a damage claim.
We have hosted many guests and have never experienced these types of issues with anyone else. We make every effort to provide clear instructions, communicate proactively, and ensure our guests have a comfortable stay. We expect guests to take responsibility for following the information provided, especially after additional guidance has been personally given.
The property was absolutely gorgeous and comfortable!! The host instructions for everything were clear & simple. Everything that we would need for the BNB was supplied successfully by our host upon arrival which was awesome and useful! Really enjoyed my birthday this year! Thank you
