GENERAL BOOKING CONDITIONS

WEEKLY RENTAL

The rental of all the properties presented on the website www.meetpointtravel.com and included in the catalogue have the legal nature of “Tourist Lease” and will be concluded by Going Places s.r.o. Srl Unipersonale on behalf of the respective owners on their expressed authorization, according to the prices advertised on the website in compliance with the terms and conditions laid out in the private agreement stipulated with the owners themselves. On the website you will find the subdivision of the properties in two types PRIVATE STRUCTURE and RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE, both rented out for self – catering (completely accessorized properties, provided with linen and towels, but not with cleaning or personal care products.
According to the Italian national and regional laws, the denomination of Private Structure derives from the fact that the owners rent the property as a private individual and not as a company or accommodation facility with special hotel license or similar and therefore he cannot supply any additional hotel services (change of linen, midweek cleaning ecc.) during the guest’s stay, This in possible in the so called Receptive Structures. These services can be supplied only from third parties and directly paid by the guest on site. Moreover, in the private structures, when no guest are in, often the owner lives there, thus the rental is to be considered occasionally and not continuing and above all not as a business form. Being private houses and for holiday purposes, they do not have standards or categories recognized at an international level, but do reflect in the architecture and in the furnishings the local traditions and the personal taste of the owner, therefore it is normal – as it is common in the house we usually live in – that there can be some small flaws.

What Going Places s.r.o. offers the clients, is a way of life: the possibility to experience and learn the habits and customs of the local population by spending a holiday in private houses which represent Italian tradition and history and which do not respond to the categories internationally recognized, but follow the personal tastes of the owners.

USEFUL INFORMATION

ROADS and distances: the structures of Going Places s.r.o. are mostly country houses, located in uncontaminated and quiet places; this is the reason why the roads leading to the properties are often unpaved, sometimes not very large, and in some cases quite steep or uneven.
Going Places s.r.o. tries to be exact in describing the roads and the distances of the properties from the towns/villages and in giving advice on what kind of car to use. We therefore kindly ask clients to carefully read the property’s profile on the website (in the part “Location and Map) in order to check the description of the road. This section also provides a satellite map “Google Maps” where you’ll be able to see the exact position of the structures and in most cases, even the access roads to the properties.
Going Places s.r.o. cannot be blamed for adverse weather conditions which make the roads more difficult to travel on or if the clients are not expert in driving on unpaved roads. Moreover, Going Places s.r.o. is not liable if the client has not carefully read everything on the meetpointtravel.com website, as required and signed at the moment of the booking, overlooking special advices.


SERVICES AND EXTRA COSTS

Every property’s profile, in the section dedicated to the prices, clearly displays what is included and what is not included in the rental price. The additional services, as extra cleaning or change of linen (where it is possible to offer these services), are on request and can be booked 60 days prior the arrival. After that term, the confirmation is subject to the availability of the supplier.


Heating and electricity cost (where required): The cost can be a flat rate (fixed weekly) or can be calculated on the basis of consumption, according to the rates in effect at the time of stay. The cost, in the event that it is a flat rate, must be paid at the time of online check-in through the Smart Hospitality service provided through the “Emma” app; in the event that heating and electricity have to be paid according to consumption, the relative cost must be paid by the customer directly on site to the owner or to a manager of the structure upon departure.


Use of the heating and air conditioning: The use of heating and air conditioning, in regards to temperature and period of use, is regulated by laws which vary from region to region. In general, heating can be used from November to April, for a maximum of 8 hours a day, whilst air conditioning can be used during the summer months. (The regulations regarding the on and off period and temperature varies from region to region). Clients must follow these rules without fail.


USB for internet connection: Going Places s.r.o. and the owners of the structures in which internet connect is via USB key are not liable for any malfunction caused by technical problems for which clients are advised to refer directly to specialized centres in the area. In regards to the ADSL and WiFi connections (the subscription is made independently by the owners) in mostly private structures, in the countryside and in areas far from the town centres, and for not broadband connections, slowing downs or malfunctioning can occur and be caused by atmospheric agents, network instability, and/or causes not attributable to Going Places s.r.o. or to the owner. In case of malfunctioning the owners will do their best in order to solve any inconvenience, but we would like to specify that some connections could not be proper for works requiring the download of a big amount of megabytes. The connection of several devices at the same time can be the cause of a service malfunctioning.

Electric car charging. It is not permitted to charge electric cars in the absence of a specific charge point and without the consent of Going Places s.r.o. and/or the owner of the booked facility; in the event of failure to comply with this rule, the client will be required to pay any extra costs resulting from the use for the charging and any structural damage caused to the electrical system and/or to the property.

ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE TIMES

The day of arrival and departure is Saturday, and the expected arrival times are between 4.00 pm and 7.00 pm, unless otherwise specified in the property information sheet. The customer is recommended to communicate their arrival time at least a week in advance so that the owner or his representative can be on site to welcome the client and facilitate his admission. This communication can be made through the meetpointtravel.com web-site or through the Reserved Area, where clients can fill in the Check-In information which will be sent directly to the owner. In the event the arrival is later in the evening and after 08.00 p.m., Going Places s.r.o. will facilitate the arrival of the clients at the reserved property, trusting in the collaboration of the owners who may require an extra charge for a late check-in. Any changes regarding the date and time of arrival must be notified to Going Places s.r.o. via e-mail or by telephone to the numbers on the final travel documentation (owner, Going Places s.r.o. office or Customer Service) in order to better organize the check-in. If the owner will not be informed about a possible delay notified on the arrival day and is not able to accept the “late check – in”, the client will bear the cost of an overnight stay at a different structure to that booked with Going Places s.r.o., without requiring anything from Going Places s.r.o. or the owner, who will in any case do their best to satisfy the client. Departure from the property will be in the morning before 10.00 am, allowing access to the owner to check the state of the property and to the cleaning staff to put the house in order at least an hour before the announced departure time. In the event that guest’s check-out before 08.00 am the owners, at their discretion, may require an extra charge which will be indicated at the time of the request for early check-out. The departure time, however, must always be communicated at least 12 hours beforehand to the owner or property manager.

ARRIVAL AT THE PROPERTY

On arrival at the property clients are asked to present their entry voucher and valid ID (passport or identity card) to the owner or his representative for registration as required by Italian law, if not communicated before in the reserved area of each client through the National Security Form. Without these documents access to the property will be at the discretion of the owner.

On the form of each property, on both web and catalogue, a maximum number of people that the structure is able to accommodate is indicated. This number (adults – children – infants) may not be exceeded in any way. In the case of changes in the number of people present or in the arrangement of the bedrooms upon arrival, if the owner has not been previously informed by the Agency, and has not accepted any changes, he will not be required to respect them. Should it be in his power to satisfy the clients, they will still be obliged to pay the required supplements.

Without formal authorization from the company and the owner of the structure, it is not permitted to organize events in the villa (birthday or anniversary parties, weddings, private parties, etc.) and it is therefore not permitted to organize catering, music and other banqueting services that require external staff.

Going Places s.r.o. requires the communication of the number of cots required through the Booking Form and at least 30 days prior to arrival. Children who fall into this category are infants under the age of 2.

PETS

Each property information sheet indicates whether pets are allowed or not. At the time of booking the client is required to communicate any pets he will be bringing with him, indicating the number and size. The owner can refuse access to clients who bring pets without having notified it at the time of booking or can refuse to accept pets when the number seems excessive for the property. Charge for extra cleaning will be required on site.

HOUSECLEANING

Initial and final housecleaning are included in the rental price unless otherwise specified in the house information sheet published on the website and in the catalogue. The weekly housecleaning (applicable on receptive structure only) does not include cleaning the kitchen and waste disposal. Properties must be returned in good hygienic conditions in all parts and accessories. If not, the client will be required to pay the owner or his representative the cost needed for cleaning. If the guests do not dispose of waste from the property the owner or his representative may ask for an additional charge for this service. The kitchen must be left clean and tidy. If, for any reason, including time, guests cannot clean the kitchen and the furnishings/fittings before their departure, the owner will be entitled to request an extra charge for it to be cleaned.

MAINTENANCE OF THE POOL AND PARK

The pools will be open in the periods indicated on the information sheet of each property (opening in low season will be regulated according to the weather conditions). Any pool opening outside the indicated period will be agreed with the owner and will require payment of an additional charge.

The gardeners and property managers in general constantly work hardly in order to keep the park in excellent condition at all times (with green and regularly watered lawns, cut grass, manicured flowers, etc.). However, it should be noted that the state of the lawns of the properties may not comply with the photos published on the site in the event of periods of severe and prolonged drought and / or in the event that there are municipal / government ordinances that rationalize or prevent the consumption of water for irrigation uses. In this case, Going Places s.r.o. cannot be held responsible for any pejorative state of the gardens.

EXCEPTIONAL MAINTENANCE AND INTERVENTION

In the event of exceptional maintenance or intervention essential for the smooth running of the holiday the clients may not in any circumstances prevent access of the owners or the managers of the facilities to the property or the house. It is understood that the owners will always provide prior notice and will require the presence of the guests themselves, it being understood that where guests cannot be present during the work progress, the owners or their representatives can however enter the houses, if necessary, to carry out any repairs.
