In the event of any conflict between the provisions of contracts, including standardized contracts of the Company, and the provisions of these GTC, the provisions of such contracts shall prevail over the provisions of these GTC. The GTC become part of the pre-contractual arrangements at the moment such negotiations begin between the Provider and the Customer and become part of the contract at the moment it is concluded.

Article I
Pre-contractual arrangements

Pre-contractual arrangements include the ordering of services, the negotiation of their conditions, and the confirmation of the final order by the Provider. Orders for services must be made in writing or electronically through the booking system and must clearly indicate who is making the order and what its subject is (type of services, dates, prices, etc.). Orders must be sent to the relevant department of the Company, i.e., the Sales and Reservation Department, or to the Operations Manager. By signing the order or confirming it via email, the Provider expresses agreement to provide the ordered services within the agreed scope, and the contract is concluded at this moment. If additional services are ordered later by the Customer or by a person designated or representing the Customer, both the Provider and the Customer are obliged to proceed in accordance with this article. The Provider undertakes to make maximum effort to provide the additionally requested services but does not guarantee their availability.

Article II
Obligations of the Contracting Parties

By concluding the contract, the Provider undertakes to provide the services specified in the contract to the Customer, and the Customer undertakes to use these services and pay the agreed price to the Company.

After fulfilling the legal requirements, including completing the registration card (record for the foreign police), the reception will accommodate the guest and provide further information regarding the stay. An Accommodation Rules document forms an integral part of these General Terms and Conditions.

Article IV
Payment Terms

If the Provider requires a deposit for the ordered services, the Customer is obliged to pay this deposit properly, i.e., in the amount and by the due date specified in the contract. Payment of the deposit means that the relevant amount is credited to the Provider's bank account unless otherwise agreed. If the deposit is not paid properly, the Provider reserves the right to cancel the reservation and charge cancellation fees in accordance with Article V of these GTC. The Customer is obliged to pay the agreed price for the accommodation. The Customer undertakes to settle the invoice in cash or by credit card at the end of the stay or within the due date stated on the invoice. Unless otherwise agreed, the due date is 14 days from the date of issue. Any discrepancies in the invoice must be reported by the Customer in writing within 5 calendar days from the date of receipt. If the complaint regarding the invoice is recognized as justified by the Provider, the due date of the invoice will be postponed and the amount will be payable within the due date stated in the newly issued invoice. If the complaint is found to be unjustified, the amount remains payable by the original due date. Payment is considered completed when the amount is credited to the Provider’s bank account stated on the invoice unless otherwise agreed. If the Customer is late with payment, the Provider has the right to demand, in addition to payment of the outstanding amount, default interest of 0.5% of the outstanding amount for each commenced day of delay, starting from the first day following the due date until the payment is made. The Provider reserves the right to apply any payment from the Customer to the oldest outstanding debt owed by the Customer.

Cancellation must be submitted in writing to the person who arranged the contractual conditions or, if this is not possible, to the Operations Manager.
