Bowmans Mews, Islington

Booking & Payment Procedure

Bookings at Silverstream Serviced Apartments will be confirmed and invoice generated via email upon receipt of payment by bank transfer in GB Pounds Sterling from the client or their agent, together with written details regarding date and time of arrival and departure, lead guest name and number of guests. All payments are due in advance of arrival date or within 4 days of invoice, whichever is sooner. 25% of rental as deposit will be required upon booking and 75% of the rental will be required 30 days prior to arrival. A refundable deposit of £200 will be required to cover possible damages, missing item, non-payment of rent and telephone charges. You may extend your stay at any time, subject to availability. All rates quoted are in GB Pounds Sterling and are correct at the time of publication. Specific client requirements must be advised upon booking. If payment is not received in time, the booking will be cancelled and the accommodation re-sold.

Cancellation Policy & Extension Policy

All cancellations must be made in writing or by email. It is the responsibility of the booker to ensure that we have received cancellation notification. The booking will be cancelled on the day of notification. No refunds will be made for non-arrivals. Cancellations made following booking but more than one month prior to arrival will be subject to 25% charge. Cancellations made within one month of arrival will be subject to full charge. No payments can be refunded other than the damage deposit. Amendment of arrival date within the 30 day period prior to arrival may constitute a cancellation of days and is thus subject to charge. Following arrival, the same 30 days’ notice is required to reduce, extend or cancel your reservation. If the stay is for less than 28 days, extended stay is subject to availability. If, for whatever reason, your advertised accommodation is not available upon arrival, we will seek accommodation of at least similar standard at no additional charge and in full settlement of the original agreement. Booking of the property will be from arrival date to departure date and extending the stay may not be possible. However, for a fee of £200, the guest can secure an option to extend the stay up to 30 days prior to the original departure date, after which there will be no further option to extend the stay.

Charges include:

Utility bills (gas, water, electricity, television), Council Tax, linen (fortnightly), towel change (weekly) and basic clean of accommodation (weekly). Telephone charges are not included and will be invoiced at cost following departure.
