About the security deposit
The damage deposit is refunded on the departure day after the owner has reviewed the inventory and provided that there are neither damages nor missing items. At this point the guest should return the keys to the owner.
The cost to repair any damaged cause by the guest will be deducted from the security deposit. If the cost to repair damages exceeds the amount of the security deposit, the difference must be paid by the guest.
Guests must return the property in the same clean conditions in which it was presented upon arrival. The inclusion of cleaning services in the price of the rent does not revoke the obligation of guests to leave the property in the same clean conditions in which it was presented upon arrival.
If the property is returned in an inadequate state of order and cleanliness, the owner is authorized to deduct from the deposit the cost of cleaning necessary to return the property to it’s original condition.
The amount of the security deposit varies according to the length of your stay, as it follows:
1 to 29 days = 1 week of rent (weekly price)
30 days = 2 weeks of rent (weekly price)
31 days or more = 1 month of rent

Guarantee of the reservation
Baires Lodge works with the primary function of reserving a specified housing arrangement for a specified time period for a guest who requested it.
1) In the event of unexpected damage caused to the property before the arrival of the guest, which prevents the stay at that location, Baires Lodge will inform the guest of the unexpected situation, offering two alternatives:
a) Relocation in another apartment available for the needed time period;
b) Refund the amount which was paid for the initial reservation.
2) In the event of unexpected damage caused to the property at the arrival time or during the stay of the guest that prevents him/her from remaining in that location, Baires Lodge guarantees the guest
that all necessary action will be taken in order to solve the problem. The guest in therefore committed to accept all actions taken by the management in order to create a resolution of the arisen problem. In case the problem is so serious that it cannot be solved in a reasonable time, Baires Lodge offers the guest two alternatives:
a) Relocation in another apartment available for the needed time period;
b) Refund the rent equivalent to the remaining days of the contract.
3) In no case will Baires Lodge accept reclamations or requests of relocation due to disturbances coming from outside the limits of the reserved unit. For example: noises from the street or any noises coming from outside the property –either buildings under construction or other-, from the state of the spaces of common use of a building, from repairs taking place in neighboring units or in the building –either with the elevator or other-, or any other situation taking place outside the limit of the unit that has been reserved.
