COLIVING (II)

 

This chapter governs the relationship between COWOOL and the Client who books a Flex’Appart or a room in one of the COWOOL establishments.

 

1.          DURATION

The length of stay is firm and variable ranging from one night to several months. The accommodation services will end automatically at the end of the agreed firm terms.

COWOOL may at any time decide to terminate a booking if any of the conditions of the House Rules or the General Terms and Conditions are not complied with.

COWOOL reserves the right to suspend the contract and deactivate the customer’s access badge until the customer’s balance in COWOOL’s accounts is at least zero.

 

2.          RESERVATION

The reservation of a Flex’Apartment or a room with COWOOL is only valid after confirmation of the reservation by COWOOL. The Client’s reservation is the subject of an acknowledgement of receipt by e-mail sent by COWOOL summarizing and confirming the reservation. Confirmation may not take place until the customer has paid an amount specified by COWOOL at the time of booking and the customer’s file is complete, unless expressly and in writing by COWOOL.

COWOOL reserves the right to request additional elements and information and will therefore validate the application when it is complete. The Client is solely responsible for its choice of services and their suitability for its needs, so that COWOOL cannot be held liable in this regard.

In the case of bookings where the service is taken care of by one of the partner agencies, the Customer remains responsible for their consumption, extras taken during their stay and not booked in advance and paid for at the time of the said booking.

The Client, prior to renting accommodation or ordering options, declares that the booking of this accommodation or services is made for his personal needs. As a consumer, the Client has specific rights, which would be called into question in the event that the services booked are for purposes that fall within the scope of his commercial, industrial, artisanal or liberal activity.

All bookings are nominative and may not be transferred to a third party, whether free of charge or for a fee.

3.          CANCELLATION OR MODIFICATION OF THE RESERVATION

Any cancellation must be notified in writing (by email to the email address of the booking establishment) by the customer to COWOOL. The effective date of a written cancellation will be the date of receipt of the cancellation.

If the customer does not show up for the key handover appointment that has been set for him without scheduling a new one with COWOOL within twenty-four hours, this will be considered as a cancellation on the part of the customer.

In the event that COWOOL does not validate the customer’s file, the entire deposit paid by the customer will be refunded.

For bookings made online, in accordance with Article L.221-28 of the Consumer Code, accommodation services are exempt from the right of repentance and therefore from the withdrawal period.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For short or long stays: the conditions for cancellation and modification of the reservation are as follows:

Given the degressivity of the rates, Cowool draws the attention of the Customer wishing to reduce the duration of his stay, that the rate conditions from which he has benefited may be updated upwards from the 1st night.

 

4.  CHANGES TO LENGTH OF STAY

The duration of the stay, if it is from date to date, is the one planned at the time of the customer’s reservation. Subject to availability and at the discretion of COWOOL, the duration of the stay may be extended at the request of the client, without obligation to stay in the same accommodation or at the same price.

 

 

 

In the event of an extension of the length of stay or a partial cancellation, and taking into account the degressivity of COWOOL’s rates related to the length of stays, the confirmation will be subject to COWOOL’s acceptance and the rate change will be applied from the date of announcement of the extension of the stay for the additional night(s),  This modification and/or extension will be formalized by the signing of a new contract with the client

From the day of notification of the extension, the rate for the additional nights will be updated on the basis of the rate in force at the time of the extension, without this extension being able to retroactively trigger a rate discount. This extension is without obligation to stay in the same accommodation unit and subject to availability for the overall duration of the stay.

5.          PRICE

Prices are indicated in euros. They are inclusive of all taxes. Any applicable tourist tax will be charged to the customer in addition. COWOOL reserves the right to modify its tariff.

6. PAYMENT TERMS

The price and access are paid at the time of booking, except when booking with certain partner agencies. For stays of less than or equal to three (3) months, the operating company may invoice the customer for the entire stay, which must be paid before the keys are handed over.

When the Client subscribes to an offer without a subscription, namely the “day offer ” and the ” half-day offer “, he does not sign any special conditions. However, he unreservedly accepts the provisions of these general terms and conditions, and those of COWOOL’s internal regulations. In the event that these terms and conditions are in contradiction, the latter shall prevail.

 

The acceptance of these general terms and conditions by the Client is made upon booking of the workspace by the Client.

No other payment and booking method is possible.

COWOOL reserves the right to request additional elements and information and will therefore validate the application when it is complete.

The customer is solely responsible for its choice of services and their suitability for its needs, so that COWOOL cannot be held liable in this regard. All bookings are nominative and may not be transferred to a third party, whether free of charge or for a fee.

 

4.          CANCELLATION

Any cancellation must be notified in writing (email) by the client to COWOOL. The effective date of a written cancellation will be the date of receipt of the cancellation.

In the event that COWOOL does not validate the customer’s file, the entire deposit paid by the customer will be refunded.

 

5.          PAYMENT TERMS

The Customer must pay for the first month of the subscription no later than the effective date of the subscription. The amount of these sums is indicated in the subscription contract. The amount of the deposit at the time of booking already paid is deducted from these sums.

3 – MODIFICATION OF THE SERVICE

Only the services described in the quote validated by the Client are carried out by COWOOL. COWOOL reserves the right to refuse any request to modify the services provided for in the quote validated less than thirty (30) days before the event. It is hereby specified that in the event that the number of participants in the event is less than the number of participants provided for in the validated quote, no refund or compensation will be granted by COWOOL, whether the Client has notified COWOOL in advance or not.

 

The reception of additional participants will be subject to the prior agreement of COWOOL, which may oppose it at its discretion for reasons of safety, quality of service or due to the administrative capacity of the premises, without incurring its responsibility and without the Client being able to use it as an excuse to cancel or modify its reservation. In the event that the number of participants in the event is greater than the number of participants provided for in the validated quote, the price of the service will be increased by the number of additional people on the basis of the unit price including VAT agreed in the quote, whether the Client has notified COWOOL in advance or not. Any additional consumption compared to the validated quote will be paid in cash on the spot or, failing that, re-invoiced to the Client, which the Client expressly accepts. The quote validated by the Client may include a privatization of an open or covered COWOOL space.

 

4 – RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CLIENT

In general, during the event, the Client undertakes to observe and have the participants observe respectful behaviour towards the COWOOL teams and towards third parties (neighbours, service providers, other customers). Failing this, COWOOL reserves the right to terminate the event immediately, without refund or compensation, which the Client expressly accepts.

 

The Client is deemed to have taken out civil insurance for any damage caused by the participants during the course of the service, whether it is damage inflicted on other clients present or on the property of the establishment. He will be solely responsible for any loss, breakage and damage that may be caused by the participants on the goods and equipment belonging to COWOOL or those made available to the Client for rental. COWOOL declines all responsibility in the event of damage or theft of valuables, handbags, briefcases, clothes, etc. belonging to the guests or any equipment stored on the premises of the event.

 

In the event that the Client brings his own electrical equipment (sound system, lighting, etc.), he will do so under his sole responsibility and he must take into account the constraints (in particular respect for the neighbourhood) and the technical limits of the space made available to COWOOL.

 

In any event, he will remain solely responsible for any damage and nuisance that his installation and equipment may have caused or that they may suffer, including theft. For safety reasons, the use of candles, light fountains and other candles is not allowed. In the event of disproportionate soiling of the rented space, COWOOL reserves the right to charge the cleaning costs. In the event of damage committed by the Client to the premises, equipment or even the common areas of access to the premises, the repairs will be assessed by drawing up an estimate, which will be presented to the Client who undertakes to pay for it. The Client undertakes to return at the end of the service the access badge(s) that would have been given to him by COWOOL. Failing this, COWOOL will invoice the Client a lump sum for each missing badge or key.
