Every vacation is a moment of freedom, which we want to enjoy to the fullest: spending amazing moments with family or friends, getting to know new places, or having moments of relaxation. However, as travelers and tourists, we must also be responsible, especially if we're staying at a rental house or apartment. Here are some tips on how to be an exemplary guest:
Usually, when you're looking for a rental place to stay, you get information on the amenities and services, as well as the house rules. Read this information carefully so you can be sure of what you'll find at your accommodation, and what is expected of you at the house or apartment you're renting.
While some hosts aren't very strict and allow you to arrive at your convenience, at some rental spaces your hosts will ask you to check in at a set time so your accommodation will be clean and ready for you. The same happens with the check-out time on your last day; your host might ask you to leave at a certain time so that they'll have time to clean and prepare the place for the next guest. If you find out your plans are changing, let your host know as soon as possible.
Always keep in touch with your host, so that they can answer any questions you have, or take care of any issues that come up along the way. For example, if your flight is delayed, you can contact the host to keep them informed of your arrival or, as the case may be, raise a complaint if you have any problems with the room. If you're staying in an apartment, the building is likely to offer a concierge service, so you’ll always have someone to help you book tours or taxis during your stay.
