The property experienced a severe water outage during our stay. Water was only available for approximately six hours per day, in two-hour intervals, due to a city pipe burst. The issue existed before our arrival, yet the host failed to notify us prior to check-in.We discovered the problem ourselves after arriving and contacted the host at approximately 1:45 a.m. Only then did she inform us that the property was experiencing significant water service interruptions. Because there was no running water available, we had to leave the property and purchase bottled water from a local store.The host’s position has been that she believed the issue would be resolved before our arrival. However, that does not excuse the failure to disclose a known material issue affecting the property. Guests have a right to know about conditions that impact basic necessities such as running water, toilets, showers, and sinks before making the decision to proceed with a stay.While the host later provided bottled water, that does not address the core issue, it was the lack of timely disclosure and the inability to reliably use the property’s plumbing facilities. Not having access to restroom facilities when needed is unacceptable in a vacation rental. The host has consistently blamed the city for the water interruption while accepting no responsibility for failing to notify us before our stay. Regardless of the cause of the outage, the host had a responsibility to disclose known conditions.
