George: I’m kind of nervous staying in a
vacation rental for the first time.
Marnie: Don’t worry. Before I
booked this unit, I checked it out
thoroughly. It’s pet-friendly and
kid-friendly, and it sleeps
six, so it’ll be perfect for the whole family.
George: But there won’t be the same
amenities or services as a hotel.
Marnie: We won’t need any of those. Just
think, we’ll have the run of the place
and there are no adjoining units.
The proximity to town is great and I
got a last-minute price that’s even
lower than their low season rate.
George: Everything sounds good, but…
Marnie: It’ll be our home away from
home. Units this close to the beach are
scarce, and this one is really
affordable.
George: A little too affordable, if you ask me.
You said that it’s just $60 a night?
Marnie: That’s right.
George: Are there any taxes or cleaning
fees?
Marnie: I didn’t ask about that.
George: Do they require a refundable
deposit?
Marnie: I didn’t check that either.
George: Then maybe it’s too good to be
true. Before we get too excited, let’s go
read the fine print.
