Arrival And Departure
------------------------------
* Standard arrival time is at 16.00 (4p.m.) onwards.
If you would like to come in earlier, please feel free to ask and we'll try to accommodate.
We live in the same neighborhood, so we're also able to welcome you at odd hours. Your flight may arrive at midnight, on Sunday or national holiday - please feel free to ask. But for such odd hours, please make sure we are available before to book.
* Someone is always present at check-in and check-out to meet you, hand you the keys, explain to you how things work and answer any questions you may have.
* Departure is at 10.00 a.m. at the latest; so as to allow time for the cleaning person to clean and prepare the apartment for the next guest.

* We are asking a security deposit. For term rentals longer than two weeks , we may require a higher deposit.
* The deposit will be used to pay for any damages which may be caused during your stay. In the event that the cost to repair such damages is higher than the security deposit you will be liable for the difference.
* We want you to relax and feel comfortable, so costs of minor accidents such as a broken drinking-glass will not be deducted and your deposit will be refunded in full, but we ask you to let us know if such little accidents do occur.
