HOUSE RULES

We want REZIDENT to be your home away from home so we appreciate you treating the apartment as you would your own:

  • Please take off your shoes when entering the apartment.
  • Please note the apartment is non-smoking throughout.
  • Please be mindful of neighbors by keeping the noise at an appropriate level.
  • Please ensure when using the bathroom, you switch on the extractor fans.
  • Please avoid damage to bedding, towels, mattresses, furniture or other essentials.
  • We love pets, but at this time we cannot accommodate them in our apartments.
  • Please be eco-friendly by switching the lights, appliances and heating/AC off when leaving the apartment.
  • All rubbish should be taken out to the garbage site. As you go out the main door of the building, take a right. The garbage site is located at the corner of the building, behind a metal gate (the code for the gate is 1199#). Please make sure the gate closes firmly behind you.
  • FOR SMOKERS, we have designed our small interior patio with chairs and ashtrays, in order to facilitate your needs. On the ground floor, as you go out of the elevator please go left, down the side stairs, using the second door out. Behind the elevator, you will find a box with pillows for the chairs. Please take them back once you are done.

Thank you so much for understanding and we hope you have a lovely time with us!
