Every effort is made to have each condo ready for occupancy by the check-in time, but sometimes unforeseen events can delay the readiness of some condos. We ask and thank you for your patience if this occurs.  There will be no discounts offered due to a late check-in.

Check-out Time. Check-out time is no later than 10:00 AM Central.
