The house was clean and well-equipped with all necessary facilities, but one major issue ruined the trip. Expedia listed this location as having ONSITE PARKING. However, upon arrival, the host directed us to park on the street. In Bayonne, overnight street parking requires vehicles to be registered locally, a process that only residents can complete, which we were not informed about. Unauthorized vehicles must be moved every three hours, leading to us receiving a $210 parking ticket.
The host was not responsive to our messages, reading them without replying. Services listed on the booking, such as laundry facilities and a home gym, were not provided.
Parking in this area is extremely limited. We had to park two blocks away, spending an hour each day searching for a spot and walking back and forth, all while RISKING a ticket because of the policy, which is obviously UNCLEAR to a tourist.
We will pursue further action on Expedia to hold the host accountable and seek compensation for our financial losses. This property is not suitable for any travelers who are driving. We kindly hope the host updates the listing promptly.
