IV. CANCELLATION
The tenant can cancel his rental at any time. However, we draw your attention to the consequences of the cancellation of an accommodation reservation: It entails the collection of variable costs depending on the date on which it occurs. The following scale is applicable, payable by the tenant: If you cancel more than 90 days before entering the premises, the cancellation costs will be 25% of the amount of your rental; you cancel between 90 and 30 days before your entry into the premises, the cancellation fees will be 50% of the amount of your rental; you cancel less than 30 days before your entry into the premises, the cancellation fees will be 100% of the amount of your rental.
These cancellation costs may be covered by cancellation insurance to be taken out individually by the tenant. Whatever the reasons for the cancellation, the tenant must notify the owner by letter or email, the date of receipt of this notice determining the scale to be applied. The tenant not having informed the owner would be held with the integral payment of the balance.
If a case of force majeure made it impossible to make the accommodation available (unscheduled urgent work, water damage or miscellaneous damage, climatic hazards, etc.), all of the sums paid would be refunded to the tenant, without him cannot claim subsequent refunds. In the event of cancellation, except in cases of force majeure, and on the initiative of the owner, the latter reimburses 100% of the sums collected.
