• Any booking made offline will only exist when your payment has been made in full, and you’ve received a confirmation from us. Once you have completed your booking and received your confirmation, you enter a contract with The Hybrid Resi on our stated Booking Terms and Conditions, unless otherwise agreed between you and The Hybrid Resi in writing. If you make a booking online, you will be taken to a confirmation screen that has a summary of your booking, including your booking reference number and the booking conditions, made up of the apartment's payment terms, cancellation policy, and arrival and departure procedure. You will also receive a full confirmation email reiterating this shortly after making your booking,

4.2

• Restrictions may apply in certain locations, including, but not limited to, a minimum night stay and age restrictions; but we’ll tell you about any restrictions at the time of booking (where applicable). We reserve the right to refuse any booking at any time.

• All guest names and contact telephone numbers are required at the time of booking, including whether guests are adults or minors.

4.4

• Upon check-in, guests are required to show the credit or debit card that was used to pay for the booking and a valid photo ID, such as a passport or driving licence, to go with it.

4.5

• Please check the details and fine print on both your booking confirmation and invoice as soon as you receive them. If you notice something isn’t quite right, or you have a question, please let us know immediately. We can’t accept liability if we aren’t notified of any inaccuracy in your documentation. If there is an error in the confirmation or invoice, we will correct it within 7 days of becoming aware of the error or, if your arrival date is within 7 days of booking, no later than 24 hours before your arrival date.

4.6 Special Requests

• We want to make your stay with us a special one, so we’ll do everything we can to help guests with special requirements or requests. If you have a special requirement, please let us know when you book (in writing) so we can help you choose the most suitable apartment to meet your needs. We’ll do our best to meet any reasonable requests, but no guarantees can be given that any request will be met. Conditional bookings cannot be accepted, i.e., any booking which is specified to be conditional on the fulfilment of a particular request.

4.7 Group Bookings

• Special conditions might apply, and we’ll let you know at the time of booking. Cancellation charges and notice periods may differ from those in clause 7.3 and will be advised at the time of the request.

Valid credit or debit card details must be supplied at the time of booking and/or upon arrival at the apartments to cover any potential “additional charges” (see clause 15).

Any information that we collect or properly obtain during the booking process will be carefully processed following our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Booking Terms and Conditions.

Any requests for changes, extensions, and cancellations must be made in writing; otherwise, you will be liable to pay the full amount of the booking. We will do our best to make any requested change to the details of your confirmed booking, subject to our applicable cancellation and modification policy. Changes that will amend the arrival date to be later than the original date confirmed will be treated as a cancellation under Clause 7.3 below.

7.1 Changes

• All changes of date are subject to availability. The original booking will be reinstated if any change is rejected. Once in-house, any changes to the departure date that result in a reduction in the length of stay will be subject to a rate change, cancellation and early departure policy.

7.3 Early Departures and Cancellations

• The Hybrid Resi reserves the right to treat a postponed arrival, early departure, or reduction in the number of nights or apartments booked as a cancellation. Because of this, apartments may be re-let, and cancellation charges, depending on the applicable cancellation policy,y will apply. If a guest doesn't arrive for their booking, it will be treated as a cancellation, and they will not be entitled to any refunds. Transaction fees are not refundable in the event of a cancellation.

• We don't expect to have to make any changes to your booking, but sometimes bookings must be changed, or cancelled, or errors in information or other details need to be corrected, and we reserve the right to do so. If this happens, we will contact you by telephone or email, where reasonably possible.
• If a change must be made or your booking must be cancelled, we will, if possible, offer you an alternative apartment of a similar type and standard in a similar location for the same period. If the alternative apartment is advertised at a lower price, we will refund the price difference.
• However, if the alternative apartment is at a higher price,e the new price will be payable. If you do not wish to accept a change or any alternative apartment offered, or we cannot offer you a suitable alternative apartment, you may be entitled to cancel your booking and receive a refund.
• You should tell us as soon as possible whether you wish to accept any change or alternative apartment offered, or if you would like a refund.

• We reserve the right to amend, relocate or cancel any reservation due to operational requirements, maintenance, health and safety concerns, overbooking, force majeure, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control. Where relocation is not possible, our liability shall be limited solely to a refund of the accommodation charges actually paid to us (excluding any third-party fees, commissions, charges or expenses). We shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, or additional costs, losses, damages, or expenses arising from such amendment, relocation, or cancellation.

• We are not responsible for the theft and/or damage of your personal belongings during your stay in any apartment booked. We recommend that you make sure you have appropriate insurance in place.

Our website may link to other websites, and we are not responsible for the data policies, content, or security of those linked websites.

They are not for use as the principal, additional home, or residence of guests; you will not be entitled to a tenancy or an assured shorthold or assured tenancy. No relationship between landlord and tenant is created, and no statutory security of tenure exists now or when the period of occupation ends. If you or any member of your party fails to vacate at the end of the period, you will be charged the appropriate accommodation charges for the continued period of occupation. No persons other than the guests have the right to use the apartment.
• These conditions constitute an excluded agreement under S(3A) (7)(a) of the Protection from Eviction Act 1977 (as amended) and cannot be construed as an assured tenancy under the Housing Act 1988 (as amended). The maximum number of guests in an apartment is determined by the number of beds in the apartment. If the maximum number is exceeded, then we may refuse access to the accommodation and/or reserve the right to charge for additional apartments.

• Re-enter the premises
• Remove the Guest's belongings.
• Pursue legal action for trespass, including claims for damages.

• If the Guest's continued occupation, except where an extension has been expressly confirmed in writing to Hybrid Resi Management, is maintained through coercion, the use of force (whether directly or indirectly, including via any practising law firm), or by obstructing the lawful rights of the accommodation provider, such actions may constitute an offence under the Criminal Law Act 1977. In such circumstances, the Guest may be subject to criminal prosecution and, upon conviction, may face penalties, including a fine and/or imprisonment, as determined by law.

The Hybrid Resi recommends that activities requiring increased bandwidth, such as Skype/Teams/Zoom, or Movie/TV streaming,g are limited.
• Support service is available to help guests who are having trouble connecting to the internet. But, if in the Hybrid Resi's opinion, the fault is deemed to be with the guest's equipment, then no support can be provided.

We reserve the right to pass on any record to the authorities should we be made aware of any such use.
