Terms and conditions

In the case of an online reservation, on the website www.nocnoc.fr, the acknowledgement of receipt of the reservation by e-mail summarizes the contract offer, the reserved services, the prices, the sales conditions relating to the selected tariff, accepted by the customer, the information relating to the after-sales service and commercial guarantees, as well as the address of the seller's establishment to which the customer can present his complaints.

1.2 The customer, prior to ordering the services, declares that the reservation of these services is made for his personal needs. As a consumer, the customer has specific rights, which would be called into question in the event that the reserved services are reserved for purposes that fall within the scope of his commercial, industrial, craft or liberal activity. It is forbidden to carry on a commercial or professional activity in the Apartments without the express authorization of the company NOCNOC.

The client is solely responsible for his choice of services and their adequacy to his needs, so that the responsibility of NOCNOC cannot be sought in this respect.

All reservations are nominative and can in no case be transferred to a third party, whether free of charge or in return for payment.

1.3 The photographs presented on the site and/or the catalog are not contractual. The photographs, graphic representations and texts reproduced are used to give as accurate an overview as possible of the accommodation services offered.

Unless they are included in the price or specifically selected at the time of booking, additional services are optional and will, if necessary, be invoiced in addition.

Any modification or introduction of new legal or regulatory taxes imposed by the competent authorities will automatically be reflected in the prices indicated on the date of the invoice.

The examples of prices indicated "FROM" in the communication media and on the website relate to a few selected nights and are valid only for the dates and cities of departure indicated.

ARTICLE 3: GUARANTEES

3.1 All reservations must be guaranteed with a valid credit card number on the date of the beginning of your stay and accompanied by payment of the total amount of the reservation.

Failure to comply with these terms, the reservation will not be guaranteed.

For the customers having reserved via our site or via the platform airbnb: 

The total amount of the reservation is due on the day of the reservation. 

If the cancellation request is made within 48 hours of the reservation and if the date of arrival in the apartment is in more than 14 days, we will refund the full amount of the reservation. 

If the cancellation request is made at least 14 days before the date of the reservation, we will refund 50% of the total amount of the reservation.

5.2 Conditions for partial cancellation of the reservation: will be considered as partial cancellation of the reservation, any modification of the date, the length of stay, the type of Apartment or the place of stay of the reservation initially confirmed by NOCNOC.

Given the degressivity of NOCNOC's rates linked to the length of the stay, if the partial cancellation of the reservation corresponds to a change in the length of stay, this is likely to result in a change of rate.

In the case of a longer stay, the confirmation will be subject to the acceptance of NOCNOC and the change of rate will be applied from the date of announcement of the extension of the stay for the additional night(s). The rate change will not apply retroactively.
