BOOKING PROCEDURE
You must complete the on-line booking form and provide us with your credit card details which will be used for charging the reservation deposit, to secure the booking. The person who completes the on-line booking form must be over 18 years of age and is responsible for ensuring full payment with the apartment owner. They are also responsible for keeping other members of his/her party informed as to the booking details. The booking is confirmed when an official confirmation email for the booking have been sent to you by APARTIME BARCELONA. Is it advisable to print out this email confirmation and bring it with you to the apartment.
If we do not confirm the booking it means that the contract has not been made. Please carefully check the details on your confirmation booking voucher/email and all other documentation on receipt and inform us immediately of any errors. We do not accept liability for any errors not notified to us within 72 hours of the date of booking and it may not be possible to make corrections at a later stage. Your contract with us and all matters arising out of it are governed by the laws of Spain and are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Barcelona.
PAYMENT
APARTIME BARCELONA forwards all your reservation information including payment details to the apartment owner. Your credit card details will be used for charging you the reservation deposit for the apartment, an amount that can be 20%, 25% or 30% of the total booking amount, depending on each apartment. Over this amount the usual 16% VAT tax will be charged. The rest of the payment for the apartment will be done during the check in time, at the apartment, and will be made in cash only.
PAYMENT SECURITY
It is important for you to know that whenever you provide us with personal details or credit card information, it is secure. Your credit card number, name, address, and telephone number are protected by powerful Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology as it travels through the internet.
CHANGES BY YOU
If you wish to change your booking after it has been confirmed e.g. guest names, date changes, etc, you must cancel your booking and re-book through the APARTIME BARCELONA website. We will try to assist but cannot guarantee to meet such requests. Cancellation charges may apply as set out in clause 6 below.

Your cancellation must be made through the APARTIME BARCELONA website, emailing us the booking confirmation email as well as all the relevant details of the reservation. Please note that any cancellation made less then 14 days before the check in date will mean that all payments made are non-refundable, once the booking has been confirmed. Also note that cancellation of the stay once you have checked in the apartment will not be accepted and you will be charged for the total stay amount.
CHANGES OR CANCELLATION BY US
We reserve the right to make changes or cancellations after the booking at any time, although we will endeavour not to make a major change or cancel the booking within 72 hours of the arrival date, except by reason of force majeure (see clause 8 below).

FORCE MAJEURE
We do not accept liability or pay compensation for any loss, damage or expense where the performance or prompt performance of our obligations is prevented or affected by reason of force majeure. Force Majeure means any event which we or the supplier of the service could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid such as war or threat of war, riots, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial action, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, closure of airports or ports, technical problems with transport, governmental action and all other similar events.
OUR LIABILITY TO YOU
(1) The published descriptions of the apartments are given in good faith. APARTIME BARCELONA does not accept responsibility for errors or omissions. Sometimes owners may suddenly withdraw a facility temporarily or otherwise. This is beyond our control and we are unable to accept liability.
(2) We accept responsibility for the proven acts and/or omissions of our employees, agents, suppliers and sub-contractors providing they were at the time carrying out work in the course of their employment or contract. We also accept responsibility if the services that we are contractually obliged to provide prove deficient or not of a reasonable standard.
(3) If the owner of the apartment is able to exclude or limit liability by virtue of any International Convention, we will claim the benefit of that exclusion or limitation which is incorporated into your contract with us. Copies of the owner’s conditions can be obtained from us on request.
(4) Please note that the maximum amount we may have to pay you for any and all claims or parts of claims which do not involve personal injury, illness or death is limited to the price (excluding administration and cancellation fees) paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total.
(5) It is a condition of your contract that all claims are notified in accordance with clause 15 below. Where any payment is made to you, you will assign to ourselves or our insurers or the relevant supplier(s) or their insurers any rights you may have to pursue any third party for recovery of such payment. You must also provide all assistance reasonably required in connection with such recovery.
OWNER NOT HONORING BOOKINGS
At the time the booking is confirmed, we issue a booking confirmation number and to the best of our knowledge at this time, the booking is valid. In the unlikely instance of the owner failing to honor the booking then please refer to your booking confirmation email and contact us via phone to the number on the confirmation for assistance.
NON-ARRIVAL AT THE APARTMENT
In case of late check-in at the apartment, your credit card details, given at time of booking, will guarantee your apartment in case of late arrival. However, if you are due to arrive after 6.00 pm, it is advisable to contact us beforehand to advise of this. A contact number for the check in service will be on your booking confirmation. Should you fail to arrive at the apartment on the arrival date the entire booking could be cancelled. The apartment might not be available on any subsequent nights of the booking and you will be charged the cost of the whole booking. Reimbursement for unused accommodation cannot be made unless you have cancelled online in compliance with clause 6 above.
MEDICAL PROBLEMS
If you have any medical problems or disability which may affect your stay you must advise us before booking giving full details to our taem. Your booking may be declined or cancelled in your best interests if we feel unable to properly accommodate your particular needs.
