The date of notification by the guests of their intention to proceed with a cancellation is considered as the basis for calculating the cancellation costs of the reservation:

Any cancellations notified between the 59th and the 8th day before the arrival do not allow the guests to receive any repayment of the deposit already paid;
Any cancellations notified between the 7th day and on the same day of their expected arrival date imply the full payment of the accommodation unit being booked by the guests.
