In the event of withdrawal more than thirty days before the agreed date of arrival, an amount of CHF 200.– is retained. This is CHF 400.– in the event of withdrawal between the 30th and 15th day before the date of arrival. The security deposit is retained in full in the event of cancellation less than fifteen days before the date of arrival.

The security deposit is returned to the resident, totally or partially, after all accounts have been cleared, by bank transfer within 30 days of her departure. Additional costs may be charged after the inventory, return of the loaned equipment (key, supplies, etc.) and completion of departure formalities.
