Late Check-Out

Is late check-out allowed in short-term rentals?

‍Late check-out depends on the host or property manager’s policy. Some may allow it for free if no incoming guests are booked that day, while others charge an additional fee. Always request permission in advance to avoid penalties.

How does MadeComfy manage late check-outs?

‍MadeComfy considers late check-outs on a case-by-case basis, subject to property availability and cleaning schedules. Guests must request approval beforehand—unauthorised late departures may incur fees to cover costs like rescheduling cleaners or delaying the next guest’s check-in.

What are typical fees for a late check-out?

‍Fees vary but often range from 20–50 per hour, or a partial daily rate if the delay is significant. Hosts may waive fees for short extensions (e.g., 30 minutes) if no conflicts arise. Always confirm charges when requesting a late check-out.

Can I guarantee a late check-out when booking?

‍No, as availability depends on same-day bookings and cleaning arrangements. Some hosts offer pre-paid late check-out options during booking, but most assess requests closer to the departure date.

What happens if I overstay without approval?

‍Unauthorised late check-outs may result in extra charges, a negative review, or, in rare cases, involvement of security or local authorities. Communication is key—always notify the host or property manager if delays are unavoidable.
