7.1. The characteristics of the Accommodation are those contained in the booking. However, since the photographs of the Accommodation were not taken on the day of booking by the Customer, there may be non-substantial differences between photography and reality at the time of enjoyment of the services contracted by the Customer, which do not confer on the Customer the right to any modification of the Agreement. 7.2.

The price of the accommodation does not include any meal service, including breakfast. 7.4.

As a rule, the Accommodation can be used from 3 pm on the day of arrival and shall be left before 12 pm of the day of departure (in both cases, Porto local time).

Payment may be made through Visa, Mastercard and Maestro Cards, as well as cash in the terms and limits imposed by applicable law. 8.4. At check-in the Customer will immediately pay the city fee, having to deliver the credit card for payment of any extras, being made a pre-authorization in the amount of € 50.00 (fifty euros).

12.1. In the field of the Agreement, S.Bento Residences is responsible for the correct issuance of Accommodation titles, and also for the choice of service providers, unless they are suggested by the Customer. 12.2.
