3 – DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE

This website allows you to book accommodation and related services at Auberge Adveniat.

When booking, the Customer:

In the case of group bookings (for more than 10 people), and unless otherwise stipulated by any means in writing (e.g. following an agreement with a reservation agent), reservations will be confirmed when the Customer pays a preliminary deposit by bank transfer or credit card. All reservations for more than 10 people made directly by a Customer using an online reservation platform will be subject to special conditions and to additional costs.

At the time of making a reservation, the Customer agrees to provide all the information necessary to identify him or her and his or her reservation choices, and certifies that they are authentic.

Once the reservation has been made, a confirmation will be sent to the e-mail address provided by the Customer.

Reservations are made in the name of the Customer and cannot be assigned or transferred to another person.

If the reservation relates to several people wishing to stay in a shared room, Auberge Adveniat will do its best to ensure that they can stay in the same room, but this cannot be guaranteed.

Completion of a reservation will constitute proof of a contractual relationship between the Customer and Auberge Adveniat.

5 – CANCELLATION POLICY

When making a reservation, the Customer will be informed of the cancellation possibilities associated with each room rate.

If the room rate in question does not allow cancellation or alteration, no refund will be due. If the room rate in question allows cancellation, this can only be done from the customer area on the hostel website, or by e-mail to the hostel concerned directly.

In case of no-show, the guest will be charged the first night or more accordingly to the hostel policy.

No-Show cases

Non-Refundable rates cannot be amended or modified. Failure to arrive at your hotel or property will be treated as a No-Show and no refund will be given (Property policy).

Any flexible rate cancellation received within 2 days prior to arrival date will incur the first night charge. Failure to arrive at your hotel or property will be treated as a No-Show and will incur a charge for the entire stay (Property policy).
