Art. 4. PRICE
4.1 The prices of the services are established based on the economic data in effect at the time they are set. A modification of applicable taxes may lead us to adjust the price of these services. Prices are flexible and variable according to different customizable criteria such as the booking date, the start date of the stay, the duration of the stay, the type of accommodation, and the addition of extra services.

Certain commercial offers available on our websites include specific conditions regarding cancellation and modification of reservations. These conditions are detailed in the specific terms found in the offer's descriptive sheet.
6.1 Regardless of when the reservation is canceled, we will retain, if applicable, any insurance premiums that may have been subscribed. Additionally, in the event of cancellation, the following penalties will apply:

These fees also apply in the case of partial cancellation (for bookings involving multiple accommodations). Only cancellations due to force majeure will be considered for potential refunds.
6.2 - No-show at the accommodation
If you do not arrive at the accommodation on the scheduled date without prior notice to the residence or the Customer Relations Service, the residence cannot guarantee the availability of your accommodation, nor ensure the execution of your stay under the agreed conditions. Additionally, we will retain any subscribed insurance premiums, plus the following penalties: 100% of the total stay amount (accommodation and services). MMR reserves the right to re-rent the accommodation.
Art. 7. NON-EXCHANGEABLE / NON-MODIFIABLE / NON-REFUNDABLE STAYS & OFFERS
Certain stay offers are marked as "Non-exchangeable, non-refundable, and non-modifiable." For these stays or services, the following conditions replace the cancellation and modification terms outlined in Article 6.
7.1 - Non-exchangeable, non-refundable, and non-modifiable policy
Due to the preferential rate granted by MMR, subscribing to these reserved Stay Offers is neither exchangeable, refundable, nor modifiable. No modification or cancellation requests will be accepted. Regardless of when the reservation is canceled, we will retain a penalty equal to 100% of the total accommodation cost. The non-use of any optional services that may have been booked and invoiced will not result in any reimbursement.
7.2 - No-show at the accommodation
If you do not arrive at the accommodation on the scheduled arrival date without prior notice to the residence or the Customer Relations Service, we will retain a penalty equal to 100% of the total stay amount. Additionally, the residence cannot guarantee the availability of your accommodation or the execution of your stay under the agreed conditions. MMR reserves the right to re-rent the accommodation.
Art. 8. ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE
The credit card used for the reservation, along with valid identification documents, must be presented upon arrival. Failing to provide these documents may result in MMR refusing access to your accommodation. MMR also emphasizes that if full payment has not been received despite reminders, we will be unable to hand over the keys upon your arrival.
For stays of one week or more, check-in is available from 5:00 PM on the day of arrival, subject to full payment. Keys must be returned by 10:00 AM on the day of departure (typically Saturday or Sunday). If the keys are returned late, an additional night’s stay will be charged.
For short stays (less than 7 nights), check-in is available from 4:00 PM, also subject to full payment. Keys must be returned by 12:00 PM on the day of departure.
For foreign guests, a police information form may need to be completed upon arrival, in accordance with applicable regulations.
Art. 9. SECURITY DEPOSIT
A security deposit ranging from €650 to €3,000 will be required upon arrival. The amount of the deposit depends on the type of accommodation and may be requested as a payment authorization on your credit card (also known as pre-authorization).
This authorization does not represent an actual debit but rather a temporary hold on funds, approved by your bank, which reduces your available credit limit to secure a possible charge. In some cases, the pre-authorization may appear as a debit on your account, depending on your bank’s policies, which are beyond our control.
MMR may use this pre-authorization for up to 8 days after your departure date. The time required for releasing the pre-authorized amount varies according to your bank's policies. We advise you to contact your bank for further details.
The security deposit will be refunded at the end of your stay after deducting any unpaid services or applicable charges, such as:
- Compensation for damages found during the inventory check between check-in and check-out (e.g., any deterioration or disturbances in both private areas—such as uncleaned kitchen—and common areas of the building).
- Any unpaid services (including optional services used on-site such as parking, electric vehicle charging, bakery items, etc.).
- The cost of lost keys provided upon arrival.
Art. 10. MINORS
Please note that our Residences are not classified as Holiday and Leisure Centers and are not designed to accommodate collective or individual stays of minors under the age of 18 who are not accompanied by their legal guardians.
MMR reserves the right to refuse access to an apartment booked in violation of this rule if minors under 18, unaccompanied by their legal guardians, arrive at the residence. In such cases, the stay will be immediately canceled.
Similarly, if MMR becomes aware before the stay begins that an apartment, room, or house is intended to accommodate unaccompanied minors under 18, the reservation may be canceled at any time.
Art. 11. HOUSE RULES
To ensure a pleasant stay, house rules are displayed in each apartment and/or at the residence reception. We kindly ask you to read and comply with them. In accordance with local regulations, specific and additional measures regarding safety, hygiene, and the environment may be communicated to you by our staff during your stay.
We recommend taking certain precautions to avoid any inconvenience: always close your bay windows before leaving your apartment and lock your door.
Please note that MMR is not responsible for any personal belongings left behind in the apartment upon check-out. If the occupant fails to meet the obligations set forth in this document, including non-compliance with the house rules or engaging in behavior that is contrary to good conduct and public order within the establishment, MMR reserves the right to terminate your stay. Our staff may ask you to vacate your apartment.
If no payment has been made yet, the client must settle all charges for services consumed before leaving, and no compensation or refund will be issued for any prior payments. The client is responsible for all damages caused by themselves and/or their guests within the residence and must bear all associated costs due to these damages and/or non-compliance with the aforementioned rules. MMR reserves the right to intervene if necessary and take appropriate measures against the client.
All apartments are non-smoking.
The residences provide guests with Wi-Fi internet access and smart TVs.

Art. 13. SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS
Interruptions in the general building services (heating, hot water, elevator, Wi-Fi, TV, etc.) do not justify a rate reduction or compensation unless they result from an intentional act by the company.
For anything not covered in these rental terms, standard rental practices shall apply.
Art. 14. AFTER-SALES SERVICE – COMPLAINTS
The Client has 48 hours after arrival to report any dispute regarding the description, quality, or cleanliness of their apartment in writing to the reception of the Establishments. After this period, the Company will not consider any complaints concerning these matters.
Any complaint related to your stay must then be submitted in writing to our Quality Service (by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, accompanied by a copy of your initial dispute report made at the reception, where applicable). This must be done within a maximum of one month after the end of your stay to ensure a timely response.
