1. The accommodation contract comes into effect as soon as the booking has been confirmed in writing, by email, or through the respective booking system by the landlord.

3. The guest is obliged to check the booking confirmation immediately for its accuracy. Deviations or errors must be reported to the landlord immediately. If the guest does not raise objections to errors or deviations in the booking confirmation immediately, the content of the booking confirmation is deemed to be contractually agreed.

• 3 Services, prices, and payment terms

1. The landlord undertakes to provide the booked holiday apartment in a contractual condition.

3. The guest undertakes to pay the agreed prices for the accommodation as well as any additional services in a timely manner.
4. All prices stated include the applicable statutory value-added tax.
5. The maximum number of persons and any permission to bring pets are specified in the respective booking confirmation. Occupancy with additional persons or animals is only permitted with the prior consent of the landlord. In this case, the price for the rental of the holiday apartment increases to the price generally charged by the provider for the corresponding occupancy.
6. If more than four months elapse between booking and the start of the trip and the costs relevant to the accommodation (especially energy, operating, or tax costs) increase unexpectedly after the conclusion of the contract, the landlord may increase the agreed price appropriately, but by a maximum of 10%. If the price increase exceeds 7%, the guest is entitled to withdraw from the contract free of charge.

• 4 Use of the holiday apartment / House rules

1. The guest undertakes to treat the holiday apartment, including inventory and outdoor facilities, with care.
2. The night rest applies from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. During this time, special consideration must be given to neighbors.
3. When leaving the holiday apartment, windows and doors must be completely closed, and lights and electrical devices must be turned off. It is not permitted to leave windows tilted.
4. In all indoor and outdoor areas of the holiday apartment, there is a strict smoking ban. In case of violations of the smoking ban or in case of extraordinary dirt, an additional cleaning or damage flat rate may be charged, provided that a corresponding effort has actually been incurred, and the landlord is entitled to terminate the rental agreement immediately. If the rental agreement is terminated due to the guest's misconduct, the full rental price must be paid.
5. The holiday apartment is equipped with extensive amenities (including toys, books, vacuum cleaner, cleaning agents), which are available for the tenant's use during the stay. All used items must be returned to their original place after use, but at the latest upon departure. If items are damaged or broken, the landlord requests timely notification. If cleaning agents or other consumables are used up, we also ask for a short notice so that these can be refilled in time for the following guests.

1. To protect the health of subsequent guests and the cleaning staff, the following regulations apply to arrival: Arrival is not permitted in the presence of reportable or highly contagious diseases (e.g., gastrointestinal infections, influenza, Covid-19, etc.). Affected persons may not occupy the holiday apartment. If such an illness occurs during the stay, the landlord must be informed immediately. To protect third parties, the landlord reserves the right to terminate the rental agreement prematurely in such a case. A non-arrival due to illness or an early termination does not release the tenant from the obligation to pay the full agreed rental price. There will be no (partial) refund. We strongly recommend taking out travel cancellation insurance (including trip interruption insurance) to secure the financial risk in case of illness.

1. Pets are only allowed with the prior written consent of the landlord. If animals are accommodated without the prior consent of the landlord, the landlord may charge a cleaning flat rate of up to €200 (gross).

1. The tenant assures that all animals brought along are healthy and free from contagious diseases and parasites at the time of arrival. The animals must be free from giardia, worms, fleas, and ticks in particular. The tenant ensures that the animals have current vaccination protection (according to the applicable recommendations for pets). In any case, the animals must be vaccinated against rabies. If other animals, guests, or the landlord are infected by the brought-in animals, the tenant is liable for the resulting damages (e.g., veterinary costs, necessary disinfection measures of the apartment, etc.). The landlord reserves the right to request current proof of parasite-free status (e.g., veterinary certificate) in case of justified suspicion.

1. The tenant confirms with the booking that there is sufficient liability insurance for both the traveling persons and the accompanying pets, which covers rental property damage. The tenant is fully liable for all damages caused by him, his fellow travelers, or his animals to the rental property, the inventory, and the outdoor facilities. At the landlord's request, proof of insurance (e.g., by copy of the policy or confirmation from the insurer) must be provided before arrival. Damages or defects must be reported to the landlord immediately.

1. The tenant is free to reposition the cat enclosure in the garden during the rental period. The tenant undertakes to ensure that the animals have access to fresh water, a provided cat litter box, and sufficient shade at all times. At the end of the rental period, the enclosure must be returned to its original location. The tenant is liable for damages to the green areas (e.g., lawn damage) caused by improper placement.

1. Decorations, alterations, or other changes to the holiday apartment, its furnishings, or garden are not permitted.

1. The use of WiFi is at the guest's own risk. Illegal uses, especially copyright infringements or criminal content, are prohibited. Criminal acts (especially illegal downloads, page views) will be reported and prosecuted. The guest is solely liable for illegal use of the internet.

1. Charging electric vehicles via household sockets of the holiday apartment is only permitted with the express consent of the landlord.

1. The landlord or persons commissioned by him may enter the holiday apartment in case of imminent danger or to carry out necessary measures. This includes, in particular, necessary repairs, maintenance work, or measures for property maintenance.

1. The final cleaning is included in the rental price. However, the following tasks must be performed by the guest before departure:

• The holiday apartment must be left broom clean.
• Trash must be disposed of in the designated trash bins.

If these obligations are not fulfilled and additional cleaning effort arises as a result, the landlord is entitled to charge an additional cleaning fee based on actual time spent (hourly rate) or a reasonable flat rate.

• 5 Withdrawal / Cancellation

1. Cancellations must be made in text form (e.g., by email) and confirmed in writing by the landlord.
2. The following conditions apply to cancellations:

• Up to 30 days before arrival: free cancellation
• 29 to 14 days before arrival: 50% of the total price
• Less than 14 days before arrival: 100% of the total price

1. The date of receipt of the cancellation by the landlord is decisive.
2. If no arrival occurs by 10:00 PM on the day of arrival without prior notification, the booking may be treated as canceled.
3. The landlord may withdraw from the contract for an important reason, especially if:

• force majeure or other circumstances beyond control make contract fulfillment impossible,
• incorrect information was provided for the booking,
• the holiday apartment is used in violation of the contract,

1. The conclusion of travel cancellation insurance (including trip interruption insurance) is recommended.

• 6 Liability

1. The landlord is liable for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health that are based on a negligent breach of duty by the landlord or an intentional or negligent breach of duty by a legal representative or vicarious agent. For other damages, the landlord is only liable in cases of gross negligence or intent.
