Absolutely not! Your stay at Urban Spa is not meant for you to clean. However, in order to prevent abuses, we indicate in our terms that the apartment should be left as clean as possible. It should be clean with no dirty dishes or trash everywhere. But don’t worry, this rule is mostly meant to prevent excessive abuses because we systematically clean the apartments after every stay, so you do not have to clean the apartment. It is time for you to relax!
When booking your stay, you will receive emails with all the information you need (address, check-in and check-out times...) You will receive an other email with instructions to come in the apartment the same day of your arrival.
We have installed smart locks so you can access the premises on your own in case of late check-in or if you arrive later than expected.
At the end of your stay, please check that all facilities are turned off and lock the main door.You will just have to leave the keys in the smart locks inside the building.
You might be asked for a deposit for car rentals or some hotel bookings - the same rule applies at Urban Spa. When booking your stay, you will be asked for a credit card imprint.
No money is cashed, but the funds are blocked, just like hotels or gas stations.
Taking into account the value and quality of the facilities of the apartments, we have to ask for a deposit in case of abuse or deterioration.
If we find that the apartment was deteriorated, the credit card will not be charged. First, we will contact you in order to find an amicable solution. The credit card will be charged if no amicable solution could be found. Until now, we did not have to cash any deposit. You will not be charged if you break a glass or in case of minor deteriorations. However, we can claim compensation in case of mural painting deterioration, damage, missing object (rose, etc…)
We cannot accept cash deposit. THE DEPOSIT IS MANDATORY FOR THE VALIDATION OF YOUR BOOKING AND THE HANDOVER OF KEYS. SORRY BUT WE CANNOT TAKE ANY RISK.
Urban Spa rents 4-star apartments equipped with expensive facilities. Just like any other rentals, in order to maintain the quality of the apartments, we require an inventory at the check-in and the check-out.
The inventory is pre-filled at the check-in. EVERYTHING is mentioned on your lease contract. After the check-in, if you observe any discrepancy with the inventory, you will have two hours to let us know. Please do so via email or text, so we can keep record of your observations.
After your stay, we will clean the premises and will check if the apartment was deteriorated. We also have to check the phone bill and if the VOD service was used. This process can take some time, this is why you will not get back your deposit immediately. The check-in inventory will be used as a reference.
In case of deterioration, damage or theft, you will let us know. Only dishonest people might try to hide the problem from us, but we always end up finding out. We contact you in order to know what happened and find a solution. Many hotels will ask for a credit card imprint without asking for any inventory, but it is their right to charge you in case of deterioration. The same system applies at Urban Spa, but we remain flexible.
The apartments are private but do not worry, our staff is always available. Nicolas, the owner can help you at any time if needed. In case of emergency or incident, we provide you with a sheet mentioning the number you should call.
