SPECIAL REQUESTS

 

We will do our best to honour special requests (such as a specific floor or room number, extra beds, crib, etc.) upon arrival. However, we cannot guarantee in advance the availability of these items.

 

 

PARKING

PAYMENT METHODS

 

PAYMENT METHOD 1 – LEAVE YOUR CREDIT CARD DETAILS

Upon booking, no deposit will be charged. We will ask for your credit card details only as a guarantee, to perform a pre-authorisation anytime before the arrival date. You will pay the total cost of your reservation at our guesthouse, upon arrival. We accept the following payment methods on-site: cash, credit cards (Visa or MasterCard), and debit cards (Maestro, BA, Karanta).

 

  • GUARANTEED RESERVATIONS

    Pre-authorisation is a type of credit check. We use it to ensure that the credit card is valid and that there are sufficient funds to cover all or part of the reservation costs. With the pre-authorisation, the amount of the reservation is »held« as unavailable for a certain period. Please note that the pre-authorisation amount is not held by our property or by our authorising bank but it’s held on your card by your issuing bank. The amount is released automatically by the online payment processor after a maximum of 7 days. However, the actual release period can take anywhere longer. If the amount is not released within 10 days, you will need to contact your home issuing bank. No reservations shall be confirmed without a pre-authorisation as a proper guarantee. If you do not possess a credit card, we can alternatively prepare a pro forma invoice and send it to you via e-mail. In this case, the payment is made by bank transfer before your arrival.

 

PAYMENT METHOD 2 – PAY TOTAL PRICE NOW

Payment of the full amount of the reservation will be completed in advance, at the time of booking. Upon arrival, you will be given an invoice for your stay.

 

  • NON-REFUNDABLE RESERVATIONS

    The advance payment does not include the tourist tax, which you will pay separately upon arrival.

 

CREDIT VOUCHER

Please note that all advance payments are final. Should you decide to cancel your booking and/or other related services within the penalty-free period, no refund shall be issued. Instead, our guesthouse will issue a Credit Voucher for you to use on future reservations. The Credit Voucher is valid for reservations made at any property managed by Burja Hotels. The Credit Voucher is valid up to 12 months from the date of issue.

 

 

ROOM RATES AND TOURIST TAX

 

The room rate includes lodging and is exclusive of the tourist (city) tax, which should be paid upon arrival. Additional amenities and services are available at extra cost unless specified otherwise in our Special Offers terms.

 

The tourist tax is 3,13 EUR/person/night. Children from 7 to 18 years of age are entitled to a 50% discount and pay 1,57 EUR/child/night. Children under 7 years of age are exempt from paying the tourist tax.

 

 

CANCELLATION POLICY

 

STANDARD POLICY

Cancellations or modifications can be made free of charge up to 7 days before arrival (unless specified otherwise in our Special Offers terms). After that or in case of a no-show the whole amount of the reservation will be charged. Cancellations and/or modifications must be submitted in written form via e-mail.

 

FIRST MINUTE POLICY

Cancellations or modifications can be made free of charge up to 14 days before arrival (unless specified otherwise in our Special Offers terms). After that or in case of a no-show the whole amount of the reservation will be charged. Cancellations and/or modifications must be submitted in written form via e-mail.

 

NON-REFUNDABLE POLICY

This type of booking requires payment for the entirety of the reservation at the time of booking and is non-refundable. No changes or modifications are possible free of charge at any given time.

 

  • FORCE MAJEURE POLICY

    Our Guesthouse declines all liability for late cancellations due to a higher order, unpredictable failures to comply with the rules, or other causes of force majeure such as natural events, disasters, and epidemics. Guests are advised to secure cancellation insurance with one of the insurance agencies as we do not refund when charged by the cancellation policy. This applies to all situations, also health.

  • THE RIGHT TO CANCEL A RESERVATION

    Our guesthouse reserves the right to cancel a reservation if a pre-authorisation has failed or the stated amount has not been paid within the agreed period (i.e. upon arrival or at the time of booking, if the room has been booked at a Non-Refundable Rate). Exceptionally we can cancel the reservation for real reasons (for example: due to urgency, unpredictable repairs that prevent the unit from being used normally and safely, technical errors that occurred during the reservation process, the need to close the guesthouse or fraud or inaccurate data provided by the guest) or in a case of inappropriate behaviour of a potential guest.

 

 

NON-SMOKING PROPERTY

 

Smoking inside any establishment is prohibited in Slovenia according to the legislation act Restriction on the Use of Tobacco and Related Products Act (Zakon o omejevanju uporabe tobačnih in povezanih izdelkov – ZOUTPI (Uradni list RS, št. 9/17 z dne 24. 2. 2017). Therefore, we ask guests to respect the fact that all our rooms are non-smoking rooms. We reserve the right to charge an exceptional flat-rate cleaning fee of 100,00 EUR for smoking in our rooms.

 

PETS

 

We are a pet-friendly accommodation, so we are glad to welcome you and your furry friend to our guesthouse. The charge is 10,00 EUR/pet/night. The additional fee covers the extra time and effort for cleaning the room after your visit as the next guests may suffer from allergies. Please, send us an inquiry for pets other than dogs or cats.

 

  • Guests are responsible for all property damage resulting from their pets;
  • Any disturbances such as barking or meowing must be curtailed to ensure other guests are not inconvenienced;
  • Pets should not remain in the room alone and unguarded as the service staff may need to enter;
  • To ensure the safety of our staff guests must contact the Front Desk to arrange a convenient time for servicing their room.

 

 

HOUSEKEEPING

 

We strive to provide you with the best value possible, while at the same time remaining an eco-friendly guesthouse. Towards these goals, we offer housekeeping every second day — dusting, vacuuming, emptying trash, cleaning the bathroom, and replenishing soap and toilet paper if needed. Also, we change towels every second day and bed linen every fifth day. Housekeeping will be happy to make your beds if all personal items are removed. You may, however, request fresh towels and linen whenever you want, regardless of our policy.

 

Important notice: general housekeeping may not be available during the Covid-19 pandemic. Please read carefully our Covid-19 guidelines for more information.

 

 

ACCESS TO ROOMS AND SECURITY

 

ACCESS TO ROOMS

Our housekeeping staff and management reserve the right to enter a room for reasonable purposes, such as an emergency, housekeeping, maintenance, verifying that the room, its furnishings, and mechanical equipment are intact, or to address or prevent a violation of our Guesthouse Policies.

 

SECURITY

If needed a laptop-sized safe deposit box is available in each room for all guests, with instructions. Although the staff and management take responsible steps to ensure the safety and security of all guests and their possessions, guests retain final responsibility for their safety, their belongings and security.

 

 

LUGGAGE STORAGE

 

We provide luggage storage free of charge for guests arriving at a time when rooms are not yet available and also for guests who have checked out but wish to collect their luggage later that same day.

Due to the Front Desk’s limited hours, we kindly ask you to arrange the storage of your luggage with the staff during check-in or the day before your scheduled check-out.

 

 

QUIET HOURS FROM 22:00 TO 8:00

 

Our apartments are located in a building with other privately owned units. Therefore, we kindly ask you to respect quiet hours. Televisions, voices, or other devices must be kept at a respectful low level at all times. Doors should be opened and closed quietly. No congregating in the hallway, running on the staircase, parties, loud disturbances and/or noise-nuisance are allowed or tolerated on these premises to ensure we can protect the property and our guests at all times. In the event of a disturbance, one polite request (warning) will be given to reduce the noise. If our request is not followed, you will be asked to leave our premises without a refund.

 

 

DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AND MANAGEMENT’S RIGHTS

 

The company is not responsible for any direct or indirect loss or damage to the guests’ property or personal injury that in any way occurs during the stay in our guesthouse (except for personal guests’ injuries that occur directly from the company’s gross negligence). The total liability of the company for damages does not exceed the value of the reservation amount.

 

If our guesthouse service has a disturbance or damage, the guesthouse will do its best to eliminate it as soon as possible, and the guest is obliged to contribute to the elimination of the disorder or to minimize the damage. If the guest, his or her guests, or any person for whom they are responsible causes damage to our guesthouse or its exterior, the guest is fully responsible for that damage, our guesthouse, however, disclaims any liability for injury that the guest might suffer in such a case.

 

Guests should respectably conduct themselves, not provide any disturbances to other guests, and will not cause any nuisance or annoyance within Zois Apartments’ premises.

 

In case of a breach of our Guesthouse Policies, we reserve the right to forbid entry, remove the guest from the room and guesthouse, and claim compensation for damage caused. Our guesthouse also reserves the right and the guest authorizes it, to charge the credit submitted at the time of booking and/or check-in for any damage or theft of the item.

 

 

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THE GUESTHOUSE POLICIES

 

We reserve the right to amend, modify, change, cancel, or alter in any way these Guesthouse Policies or the arrangements and content featured on our Website at any time without prior notice. Please check our Website for updates to the Guesthouse Policies. Any modification to these Guesthouse Policies that may occur before your departure is considered a part of your reservation agreement with us.
