We got stranded in west Texas during a highly unusual snowstorm, with the National Weather Service recommending NO TRAVEL. We communicated with the host asking to move the dates of our reservation so he can keep the money and open the listing for other guests, he said NO, he said NO to cancelation, he was closed to any options. If you have a normal life with family and normal issues I DO NOT recommend making a reservation with this host he is completely intransigent with his costumers.
