State whether a guest approaches by sealed road, shared driveway, lobby, stairs, lift or external path; explain where a vehicle may legally stop; identify the key or lockbox sequence; and tell late arrivals when detailed directions are sent.

Keep active marketplace listings, rates and availability aligned while the host builds an owned website, consent-based follow-up and a recognisable local page. Explain inclusions, payment timing, cancellation terms and support contacts consistently.
