# Unavailable Properties

If a requested property is unavailable, a **Property** element is returned with the **AvailabilityStatus** set to “Closed.” This element will also include the **ClosedReason** attribute, which indicates the reason for the closure.

Additionally, an **Error** element is returned, often providing further details. The **ResponseDataPath** attribute within the **Error** element will reference the specific property ID related to the issue.

Below is an example response for a request involving three properties, where one is unavailable (edited for clarity):

```xml
<HotelML xmlns="http://www.xpegs.com/v2001Q3/HotelML" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
