Event tickets, the best hotels, and reservations at popular restaurants always sell out or book up quickly when a high-profile event is in town.

Cancellation costs vary, depending on the property owner, so will always recommend a policy that includes the ability to cancel for any reason.  Note in most cases rentals may be considered non-refundable.
