5. Accommodation
Due to the limited number of rooms and apartments at a given address, the Provider cannot and does not maintain a 24-hour reception at each of the addresses managed by it. The Provider has only one reception, located at 1113 Sofia, 18 Shipchenski Prohod Blvd. (Galaxy shopping center is at the same address), entrance B (do not confuse it with entrance C), floor 5, apt. 40. The reception opening hours are from 12:00 to 18:00. There is a possibility of self-check-in, which can be carried out after 18:00. For each address there are specific rules for check-in, which are described on the Site. By placing an order, the user declares that he accepts these rules for check-in and releases the Provider from liability if he cannot comply with them. Check-in outside the reception opening hours is entirely independent and virtual. It is the user’s responsibility to carefully familiarize himself with the instructions sent by the provider and it is advisable to have access to them during check-in. The provider is socially responsible and, in addition to its guests, also takes care of the peace of the permanently residing neighbors. We require our guests not to disturb the neighbors or to ring the bells of the location where they are staying. The “early check-in” service (before the specified check-in start time and after 12:00) is possible and free of charge, but cannot be guaranteed because it depends on the time the room was vacated by the previous guest. If possible and upon request by the guest, the Provider also offers the “luggage storage” service free of charge until the regular check-in time. The Provider provides free late “self-check-in” only to users who have registered in advance. Registration is done either at the “Stay Nexus” reception, or through our official communication channels – email ( [email protected]) or Viber/ WhatsApp (+359 878549022). After the reception opening hours, accommodation of unregistered guests is not guaranteed and, if possible, this is agreed upon additionally and is subject to an additional charge. The User is obliged to inform the Provider of his/her planned arrival time and the telephone number that will be active and answered during his/her stay. If during the check-in and during the stay the User changes his/her telephone number or communication channel, he/she is responsible for informing the Provider of this. The Provider responds to each email of the Client within 24 hours of receipt and to each telephone call immediately upon receipt if it is during the reception opening hours. Calls or messages via Viber, Messenger, WhatsApp or other online communication platforms are not considered a telephone call and the response to them cannot be guaranteed by the Provider outside of working hours. When staying in rooms and apartments located at the address Sofia, Shipchenski Prohod Blvd. 18 and between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, the guest is not obliged to call the Provider’s phone number and can arrive directly at the reception. In any other case, with his order, the guest is obliged to call the Provider’s contact phone number upon arrival at his chosen accommodation address. The Provider helps the user to find the exact address of his accommodation within his working hours. The rooms and guest apartments offered by the Provider are private properties in residential buildings for permanent residence. The user declares that he has understood the specifics of the accommodation he has chosen and cannot expect the presence of information signs and/or advertisements with the name of the accommodation. The Guest undertakes to comply with the rules and regulations of the Bulgarian legislation for the occupancy of the residential areas provided to him and not to disturb and bother his neighbors, including, but not only, during his accommodation. If it turns out that the user does not answer the contact phone number provided by him or his contact line is not active, the Provider is not responsible for the resulting problems with the accommodation. Communication with the Provider takes place in English or Bulgarian and if the user does not speak them well, he takes care to provide himself with a convenient translation application during communication or familiarization with the instructions sent.
