6. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the rooms are available as of 3:00 p.m. on the arrival date and the client must vacate the room prior to 11:00 p.m. on the last day of the reservation. A late departure may be possible for an additional fee upon request, depending on room availability.

Article 4: Payment Methods
1. Payment for all services will be made directly to the hotel (with the exception of reservations for which prepayment is required at the time of the reservation).
2. The client provides his/her debit/credit card information to guarantee the reservation, except for special rates or terms and conditions. A bank or proprietary credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) may be used. The client enters this information (card number without spaces, expiration date, and card security code) directly on the SSL-encrypted online form.
3. The payment to the hotel will be made during the stay, except in the case of special rates or terms and conditions that require payment at the time of reservation (online prepayment for certain rates). This prepayment is termed a deposit.
4. In the case of a rate subject to online prepayment, the amount paid in advance, which is a deposit, is debited at the time of reservation.
5. At the time of prepayment, the amount debited upon reservation includes: the room rate, the restaurant fee if breakfast is chosen, taxes, and any other complementary services selected by the client. The tourist tax is not included.
6. In the event of a no-show (if the client fails to arrive for a reservation that has not been cancelled) for a reservation guaranteed by debit/credit card, the hotel will charge the client a penalty fee in the amount of the first night’s stay, applied to the card provided to guarantee the reservation.
7. The credit card used for a prepayment may be requested by reception staff upon arrival at the hotel. It must be in the same name as the reservation. If the card is in another name, it will be necessary to contact the hotel in advance to fill out an authorization form and provide a copy of the debit/credit card and a form of identification belonging to the cardholder for authorization. Failing this, the hotel may require the client to pay a deposit on site with his/her own debit/credit card, in exchange for which the hotel will refund the deposit originally made on the card that was used to make the reservation.
Article 5: Guest Relocation
In case of force majeure involving exceptional circumstances or technical problems that make it impossible for the client to stay in the hotel, the hotel will make every effort to find alternate lodgings, in a hotel of the same rating category or higher, if possible. One-way transportation between the 2 hotels and any difference between the room rates will be covered by the hotel.
Article 6: Staying at the Hotel
1. Upon arrival at the hotel, the client is asked to fill out an arrival form and to present a form of identification in order to verify his/her identity. The hotel reserves the right to cancel the reservation if the client does not present a form of identification.
2. The client accepts and agrees to use the room in a reasonable manner, in keeping with its intended purpose. Therefore, any behavior contrary to accepted principles of morality and to the public order will cause the hotel management to ask the client to leave the premises without compensation or refund, if a payment has already been made. In the event that no payment has yet been made, the client must pay for all nights stayed prior to leaving the premises.
3. The client agrees that the computer resources (wi-fi access) provided by the hotel for his/her use will not be used in any way for illicit purposes. Moreover, the client is required to follow the security policies of the hotel’s internet service provider, including the rules for use of the security measures implemented in order to prevent the illicit use of computer resources, and to refrain from any attempt to impede the effectiveness of such measures.
4. The client will be held liable for any damage, deterioration, or act of vandalism that may occur as a result of the occupation of the premises and/or the actions of his/her guests and/or employees, with regard to property damage resulting from the use of the web-based network as well as any losses of data, viruses, or service disruptions.
5. Pets weighing no more than 7 kg (15.4 lb.) are permitted, for an additional fee, provided that they are kept on a leash or in a cage in the common areas of the hotel. The hotel may require the presentation of a valid health record and the use of a flea collar. In the event of property damage or deterioration caused by the animal, the animal’s owner will be directly liable. For reasons of hygiene, pets are not allowed in the dining rooms.
6. Smoking/vaping inside the hotel is strictly prohibited. In the event of smoking or vaping, the client is subject to a penalty equal to the expense of closing and thoroughly cleaning the room.
Article 7: Claims
Any claim must be made directly to the hotel or sent via registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt no later than 15 days after the departure date, on penalty of forfeiture.
Article 8: Liability
1. The photographs on the website do not constitute a contract. Although every effort is made to ensure that the photographs, illustrations, and texts used to describe the hotels being presented give as precise a representation as possible of the accommodations on offer, variations may occur, particularly as a result of furniture changes or possible future renovations. The client may not make any claims on this basis.
2. The hotel cannot be held liable for failure to complete the reservation, or for incorrect completion of the reservation, as a result of a force majeure event, of an unforeseeable and insurmountable third-party action, or of an action taken by the client or its partners, such as lack of internet access, unavailability of the website, outside intrusion, or computer viruses, or in the event that the account holder’s bank declines prepayment.
