Upon, or before, arrival to the Object, the Tenant shall make a deposit, how much depends on which apartment you rent. Subject to section 6 below, the Deposit will be refunded to the Tenant upon departure and return of the keys of the Object to R4Y].

A Booking becomes binding when confirmed by R4Y and the Tenant has paid the Prepayment or if the Booking has been made less than 40 days prior to the Arrival Date when full payment has been made.
If the Tenant fails to timely pay the Prepayment, R4Y shall be free to offer the Object to other potential Tenants for the same period as the Booking.
If the Tenant fails to timely pay the Final Payment, R4Y may cancel the Booking and retain the Prepayment in full.

If the breach is material, and unless R4Y is able to remedy the breach within a reasonable time, R4Y shall instead offer the Tenant alternative accommodation. If such alternate accommodation is not available, the Tenant may cancel the Booking, and R4Y shall in such case refund the Tenant the rental fee.
