Help! A reservation was booked with a pet friendly host who under their house rules stated, "Pets are allowed with an additional $100 pet fee." Upon booking (nonrefundable option), under the reservation details and house manual there are additional rules and fees listed NOT disclosed prior to booking. Which are now stating that, that $100 pet fee is PER pet and to me, this is not what the house rules make it appear to be. Additionally, it then says additional rules not previously listed as well as, that pets are not allowed on furniture or there would be an additional $25+ charge.
My issue isn't that these items are being charged. My frustration is that a FULL disclosure prior to booking was not given and the statement regarding the pet fee changed AFTER booking going from "Pets are allowed with an additional $100 pet fee," (making it seem like a $100 flat fee) changed to "There is a pet fee of 100$ per pet that is non refundable," after booking showing up under house manual... If I had known these things prior to booking such as that the pet fee was $100 per pet vs. $100 total as the house rules made it out to be, I would have never booked in the first place. Having a nonrefundable booking do I have any options here? or am I crazy in thinking the initial fee under house rules was a flat fee and not per pet?
Any help and tips in trying to figure out this situation without upsetting the host would be greatly appreciated!!
