If you are experiencing a short-term lease for the first time, you might wonder about the specific do’s and don’ts while staying in a landlord’s property. Whether you are booking a monthly stay or looking for temporary housing, following a few simple etiquette rules can help you treat the space with respect and minimize misunderstandings with your landlord.

To ensure a positive experience for everyone involved, here are 5 essential move-in etiquette rules to follow during your short-term rental stay with 33m2.

1. No Indoor Smoking

Smoking indoors is strictly prohibited. It can lead to disputes with neighbors and cause significant discomfort for the next tenant who expects a fresh environment.

Please be especially careful, as any odors or contamination caused by smoking may become grounds for compensation for damages.

2. Prior Discussion is Required for Pets

If you plan to bring a pet during your short-term lease via 33m2, you must discuss it with the landlord in advance.This is because pet-related noise or shedding can cause inconvenience to both the landlord and neighbors.

Even if prior agreement is reached, you are still responsible for managing pet waste and hair throughout your stay.

3. Report Damages to the Landlord Immediately

If you accidentally damage the property or any fixtures during your stay, please contact the landlord as quickly as possible to take appropriate action. Even if you were not the one who caused the damage, you should inform the landlord as soon as you discover it to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

If undisclosed damage is found during the move-out inspection, it can lead to larger disputes.

4. Dispose of Trash as Instructed

All waste generated during your monthly stay (general waste, recycling, food waste, etc.) must be disposed of by the tenant personally upon move-out.

Please follow the specific locations and methods provided by your landlord for proper trash disposal.

5. Use Utilities Responsibly

Utility bills are generally charged based on actual usage. Therefore, if you use air conditioning or heating excessively during your 33m2 short-term lease, additional costs may be charged according to the landlord’s policy.

Please check the "Room Details" for included utility items and descriptions, and use them mindfully—just as you would in your own home.
