Arrival Times
Upon completing the reservation of an apartment, the client should supply us with the flight number and arrival time as the estimated arrival time at the accommodation. Upon arriving in Barcelona, the client should contact the representative directly to re-confirm the arrival time. In case of any delay or change in arrival time, the client should contact the representative. There is no refund in case of delay or early departure. Check-in time is from 3:00pm; check-out time is 11:00am. A late check-out fee of 1 extra night will be applied to check-outs after 11am. In order to have enough time to properly prepare the apartment for incoming guests, we cannot extend the check-out time past 11:00am. Please note that arrivals after 8:00pm carry a supplementary charge of 30 Euros and arrivals after midnight (00:00) will be charged an additional 45€.

Deposit
As already indicated in the reservation confirmation, in order to obtain the keys to the accommodation the customer must pay the indicated amount of deposit. This deposit will be return by the contact person after assuring that the accommodation is in the same conditions as when the customer entered.
As stated above, in order to obtain the keys to the accommodation, the client must pay the indicated amount of damage deposit. WHEN THE RESERVATION IS UNDER 7 DAYS the deposit should be paid by pre-authorization on a credit or debit card. This amount is blocked on the card for 7 days, after which time it will be automatically unblocked, provided the apartment has been left in an acceptable condition. For all rentals between 7 and 28 days the deposit will be taken on a credit or debit card and returned to the same card up to 7 days after leaving the apartment. For all rentals over 28 days, the damage deposit will be returned by bank transfer up to 30 days after leaving the apartment, once the apartment has been inspected and any necessary charges for utilities and/or damage to the apartment have been deducted.

Bills
The consumption of water, electricity and gas in the apartment is included in the total price for all rentals up to 28 days. Any rentals for more than 28 days will be subject to a consumption charge, the meters will be read on arrival and departure and the price will be calculated accordingly.

Occupancy
The number of persons occupying an apartment must coincide with the number of persons in the reservation confirmation. It is forbidden to make any changes to the number of persons from that which is indicated in the reservation without previously notifying Apartment Barcelona. If, after booking an apartment, you wish to INCREASE the number of guests, this will only be possible if the maximum capacity of the apartment has not already been reached. A new price will be calculated and a percentage of the price difference will have to be paid in order to confirm the modification. In the case that the client wishes to DECREASE the number of guests, the total price will remain the same.
