The prices of the apartments are based per night and depend on the number of people staying in the apartment. The minimum stay depends on the arrival day, but is usually 3 nights.
To book an apartment you can check availability on our website. After selecting your dates and nº of people a list of the available apartments with the total price for the stay will be shown and the prepayment payable in advance. Once you have selected an apartment you must fill in the reservation form.
Credit Card Information is needed to guarantee your reservation against cancellations in all cases.
An advance prepayment may be required. This depends on the apartment and also on the total amount of the booking and is indicated at the time of reserving.
This prepayment is paid at the moment the booking is made and will be reduced from the total price to pay on the arrival day. Once you have submitted the reservation form and made the payment, if payment is necessary, we will send you the Confirmation Form by email including information about how to arrive to the apartment and the total amount to pay on the arrival day.
You can also send us an email requesting availability. In this case we will reply to as soon as possible, usually within 24 hours, with the available apartments and the price.
Cancellation terms depend on the apartment and are detailed in each apartment description in the conditions section. For all the apartments:
Cancellations must be notified to Habitat Apartments by email to info@habitatapartments.com and acknowledgement of receipt must be sent to you by Habitat Apartments. In the case that a deposit has been paid this will be deduced from the cancellation fees (depending on when the cancellation takes place).
In the unlikely event that the apartment booked cannot be provided, Habitat Apartments shall offer an alternative apartment with the same quality standard, depending on availability. If the client does not agree with the alternative apartment offered and does not want to stay in any Habitat Apartments apartment, Habitat Apartment cannot ask for any cancellation fees and will refund any amount paid in advance. If Habitat Apartments cannot find any alternative within their portfolio, they will assist the guest in any way possible to find alternative accommodation with another agent but cannot be held responsible for any inconvenience or additionnal fee.
Your credit card shall only be used to guarantee your reservation against cancellations, to charge the advance payment and as damage deposit for some apartments, all in accordance with the clauses hereto. We do not store your Credit Card Information in any Personal data file. However, the credit card will be used to cover any damage caused in the apartment during the clients' stay.
The client pays the amount to pay in cash Euros on the arrival day. Payment with Credit Card is also possible depending on the apartment and could be subject to an extra charge. Detailed information about payment options is provided in apartment's conditions section and on the Confirmation Form, or if any doubt, please contact Habitat Apartments before reserving.
Arrival and departure conditions depend on the apartment and are detailed in each apartment's page in its conditions section.
On the arrival day a contract / registration form must be filled and signed including information related to the guests staying in the apartment.
We usually do not make reservations for more than one apartment in the same building. The reason is that neighbours are concerned about large groups staying in apartments due to the noise. If in doubt please contact us before reserving.
It is important to keep in mind the following rules of conduct:
Noise
# It is very important to respect the noise level (of people, music) after 9pm at night.
# Parties are strictly not allowed.
# Do not make noise on the apartment balcony or terrace (please respect neighbours' rest).
# Meetings in the landings or in the building entrance / common areas are not permitted.
Security
# Always close the door to the street. It is important to ensure after entering or leaving that the door remains securely closed.
# Do not open the door to commercial mail.
# Ensure you securely close the balcony door / windows every time you leave the apartment and during the night.
Trash
# Do not leave trash bags in the landings, in the entrance or any common area in the building. The trash should be left in closed plastic bags in the street bin containers near the apartment.

Any damage to the apartment caused by the client during the stay will be discounted from the damage cash deposit. If this amount does not cover the damage caused, the client will be obliged to pay the difference. The deposit will be refundable on the exit day in the case that there is no damage.
