GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS AND CONSUMER INFORMATION
(this is a translation of the original Terms and Conditions in German language. This English version is not a legally binding document. The only valid document is the German version of the Terms and Conditions (AGB’s) to be found on our German language website www.frederics.eu )
1.1 Your contractual partner for the Frederics Apartments services is IPG Immobilienprojekt GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “Frederics” or “we”), Ohmstr. 18, 80802 Munich, Germany, Tel. +49 (0)89 45243895, Fax +49 (0)89 45243897, e-mail info@frederics.eu Frederics is represented by its managing director Anneliese Albrecht.
1.2 If a third party makes a booking for a guest, the third party is liable for all claims by Frederics arising from or in connection with the booking (in particular for damages negligently caused by the guest during his stay). The third party authorises the guest vis-à-vis Frederics to submit and receive any declarations of intent in connection with the booking (e.g. cancellations, booking changes). The third party is obliged to make these General Terms and Conditions available to the guest in a timely manner.
2.1 These General Terms and Conditions (“GTC”) apply to all contracts that you as a consumer or entrepreneur conclude with Frederics for the services offered by Frederics. If you book further services with us in the future, these GTC shall also apply to such future bookings.
2.2 Deviating terms or terms that go beyond these regulations shall only apply if they have been individually agreed. General terms and conditions of the customer do not apply. This shall also apply if we accept the customer’s booking in which the customer refers to his general terms and conditions and/or the customer’s general terms and conditions are attached and we do not specifically reject them.
3.1 The descriptions of services available on the Internet do not represent binding offers by us. The booking of a service by you is a binding order for the conclusion of the respective contract. The contract is concluded as soon as the booked services are confirmed by us or, if a confirmation was no longer possible, provided by us.
3.2 At the time of booking, a valid credit card must be provided through one of Frederics’ online distribution channels. Frederics has the right to immediately verify the validity of the provided credit card and pre-authorise the charge. In the case of a booking with a non-refundable rate, the full amount of the stay will be deducted from the credit card provided at the time of booking. Should it not be possible to charge the credit card, Frederics reserves the right to cancel the reservation. The right to use the room by the Guest is thereby revoked.
3.3 Bookings with a non-refundable rate may not be cancelled, rescheduled or refunded.
3.4 There is no right of revocation as defined by §§ 312g, 355 BGB according to § 312g para. 2 sentence 1 no. 9 BGB.
4.1 Unless otherwise agreed, accommodations are not accessible before 3 p.m. on the day of arrival.
4.2 Accommodations must be vacated by 11:00 a.m. on the day of departure. If an accommodation is not vacated by this time, Frederics is entitled to charge an late check-out fee of 50% of the daily room rate. If the room is vacated after 3 p.m., the full room rate may be charged. The claim for further damages due to the late check-out is not excluded.
5. SERVICES AND RATES
5.1 Which services are contractually agreed upon is stated in the accommodation/rental agreement. In the absence of a specific agreement, the services and rates published in Frederics’ Internet Booking Engine shall be deemed to be part of the contract. When you use the Internet Booking Engine for a reservation, before submitting your booking you can check all entries for accuracy and if necessary correct them.
5.2 Unless otherwise agreed, the guest is not entitled to a specific room in the booked room category.
5.3 The agreed rates include the statutory value added tax as well as any other fees and taxes. If the amount of the statutory value added tax or other fees and taxes changes, Frederics reserves the right to adjust the rates accordingly even after conclusion of the contract. For contracts already concluded with clients, prices shall only be adjusted if the day of arrival is later than four months after conclusion of the contract.
5.4 The booker is obliged to pay the rates valid or agreed for the provision of accommodation and any other services used by the guest or the booker. The same applies to services and expenses of Frederics towards third parties arranged by the guest or the booker.
6. CESSION OF USE TO THIRD PARTIES / SUBLETTING
6.1 The booker is obliged to provide truthful information about the number of persons who will occupy the accommodation. The accommodationm is available for the maximum number of persons specified in the reservation confirmation.
6.2 Without Frederics’ prior consent, it is not allowed to cede the use of the accommodation to additional persons or persons other than those booked (e.g. by subletting it to a third party).
6.3 If Frederics agrees, the rate for the use of the accommodation shall be increased to the rate generally charged by Frederics for the corresponding occupancy.
7.1 The following payment methods are accepted: credit cards (Visa Card, Master Card, American Express Card), EC cards, cash, bank transfer.
7.2 The property shall be entitled to require the booker to make a reasonable advance or deposit payment in the form of a bank transfer, credit card or cash payement on conclusion of the contract. The total sums and payment dates are agreed in the contract. Ancillary services such as garage etc. are not included in the room rate and must be paid upon presentation of a pro-forma or final invoice.
7.3 Frederics invoices are payable immediately upon receipt without deduction. A booker is considered to be in arrears if he does not execute a payment within 7 days after receipt of an invoice and due date. Frederics may apply a reminder fee of Euro 10.00 for each reminder sent after default has occurred.
7.4 If the contractual partner uses a credit card for payment without physically presenting it (online payment), the contractual partner is not entitled to revoke this charge against his credit card institute.
7.5 There is no claim for reimbursement for services booked and not used.
8. CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION POLICIES
8.1 During trade fairs, the Oktoberfest (only for our Munich properties) and other events, a free cancellation of confirmed reservations is possible up to 30 days before the day of arrival (12:00 a.m. local time). During other periods, confirmed reservations may be cancelled free of charge up to 48 hours prior to the arrival date (12:00 a.m. local time). For cancellations or booking changes that are made later or not at all, we charge 90% of the total value of the booked services.
8.2 In the event of non-arrival on the day of arrival, we charge 90% of the total value of the booked services (“no-show costs”). The booker is liable for these costs with the credit card data provided to us, through which the no-show costs will be charged.
8.3 For group bookings of 10 accommodations or more, other booking and cancellation terms will apply. These conditions can be found in the respective offers and booking confirmations. Unless otherwise agreed, the following cancellation policy applies to group reservations of 10 or more accommodations for the booked and confirmed room allotment:
– a free cancellation is possible up to 30 days before the arrival day (12:00 a.m. local time) for up to 5% of the reserved accommodations;
– In the event of cancellation of more accommodations and/or less than 30 days prior to the arrival date (12:00 a.m. local time) we charge 90% of the total value of the reserved services.
8.4 The booker is free to prove that the cancellation did not lead to any losses or that the losses were significantly lower than the above cancellation fees. In such a case, the cancellation fee may not be paid or may only be paid in a correspondingly lower amount.
8.5 Insofar as it has been contractually agreed that the customer may withdraw from the contract free of charge within a certain period of time, the property shall also be entitled to withdraw from the contract within that period.

– the fulfilment of the contract becomes impossible due to force majeure or other circumstances for which Frederics is not responsible;
– rooms are booked under misleading or false statements of essential facts (e.g. concerning the booker/guest/tenant identity;
– the booker/guest/tenant subleases the accommodation or allows third parties to use it;
– there is legitimate reason to assume that the guest’s use of the services may compromise the smooth running of the business, the security of the property or the reputation of Frederics, without this being attributed to Frederics’ area of control or organisation, in particular in the event of a violation of public morality by the booker/guest/tenant.

The booker/guest/tenant is free to prove that smoking in the non-smoking accommodation did not cause any damage or only a much lower damage than the above mentioned fee; in this case the fee is not to be paid or only in a correspondingly lower amount. Should smoking in the non-smoking area lead to costs for the triggering of the fire alarm system and the associated fire brigade deployment, Frederics may demand full reimbursement of these costs.
9.3 If Frederics provides third party services or technical or any other equipment to the booker/guest/tenant, Frederics shall act in the name and for the account of the booker/guest/tenant; the booker/guest/tenant shall be liable for the careful treatment and proper return of the equipment and shall indemnify Frederics against all claims of third parties arising from the procurement of such equipment.

Primary obligations are those obligations whose fulfilment is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on whose observance the booker/guest/tenant may regularly rely. In these circumstances, however, we shall not be liable for unforeseeable or consequential damages, loss of profit as well as cost cuttings. Moreover, the liability of Frederics for minor negligence is excluded. This limitation of liability also applies to direct claims against employees, salaried employees or other sub-contractors of Frederics.

The property is not subject to any monitoring obligation.
