2.2          You must be at least 18 years old to make a Booking Request.

2.3          If you are making a Booking Request as an individual (rather than on behalf of a business) please include your credit card details in the Booking Request as we are unable to issue a Confirmation of your booking without these details.

2.4          Please let us know if you are aware of any medical conditions, disabilities or other requirements that may affect your booking when you make your Booking Request. 

2.5          Please check that the details in your Booking Request are complete and accurate, before you submit it.

2.6          We will endeavour to contact you with a Booking Request Response as soon as possible and at least within 2 Working Days from when you make your Booking Request.

2.7          If you wish to proceed with the Booking Request following receipt of our Booking Request Response, you must pay us the applicable holding deposit as detailed in the Terms of Stay and in the Booking Request Response.

2.8          On receipt of the holding deposit, we will issue the Confirmation, which will set out the Booking Fee payable minus the holding deposit paid. .

2.9          We will let you know in our Booking Request Response if the Property Partner is not able to meet the requirements in your Booking Request and if they or we can offer you another apartment and/or another period which may be acceptable to you. Any alternative offered to you will be subject to separate Terms of Stay between you and the relevant Property Partner who offers the alternative.  If you agree to the alternative offered by the relevant Property Partner you will need to pay a holding deposit for the alternative apartment and we will then issue you with a Confirmation for such Serviced Apartment as agreed.

2.10       Your Booking Request is not confirmed until we have accepted it on behalf of the Property Partner by issuing you with a Confirmation (even though you will have paid a holding deposit).

2.11       In the unlikely event we are unable to issue a Confirmation after you have paid a holding deposit, we will refund your holding deposit immediately.

2.12       Before we issue the Confirmation, we, on behalf of the Property Partner, have the right to refuse any Booking Request or any alternative offered in accordance with clause 29

2.13       These Terms and the applicable Terms of Stay will become binding on you and a legally binding contract for the provision of the Serviced Apartment will be created directly between you and the Property Partner when we issue the Confirmation.  We are not party to the contract between you and the Property Partner for the provision of the Serviced Apartment.

3.6          The Property Partner may also require payment of a security deposit to cover any damage to the Serviced Apartment or breakages during the Booking Period, cleaning charges if the Serviced Apartment is left in an unsatisfactory condition and the non-payment of Additional Services. If this applies to your Serviced Apartment it will be set out in the Terms of Stay. We, acting as agent of the Property Partner, shall require a pre-authorisation of your credit card for the amount requested by the Property Partner when the Confirmation is issued. We will only charge your credit card if requested to do so on behalf of the Property Partner and in accordance with the relevant Terms of Stay.

5.3          If the Property Partner has not set out the Cancellation Fee in the Terms of Stay, you agree to pay the Cancellation Fee calculated in accordance with clause 5.4 in the event that you cancel your Contract or if you or the Guests fail to show at the Serviced Apartment by the time specified in clause 8.2.

6.3          You agree to pay the Cancellation Fee in the event that we or the Property Partner cancel your Contract pursuant to clause 9.3 (termination for your default) provided that you have not paid the Booking Fee in full on the date of termination.  If you have already paid the Booking Fee in full then you will not be charged the Cancellation Fee but you shall not be entitled to a refund.
