CREDIT CARDS, PHOTO ID, MINIMUM AGE AND COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
For the security of all guests it’s important we understand who is staying and collect important information. Our team use Apps made by Canvas to collect your name, address and phone number. We are required to also verify a valid photo ID i.e. a driver’s license or passport and to collect a small security deposit. We collect all of this information securely in our secure app 'canvas', we then upload this and the original information such as photos of your credit card and photo ID are deleted automatically from the device used. This process is very similar to that used by most hotels except rather than photocopying your items we store this electronically. In general, most information is only stored for 7 days after checkout.
The primary guest, 'the booker' must be a minimum of twenty one (21) years old at time of stay. This guest must produce matching photo ID and a valid credit card in the same name on arrival. We will capture a $250 (1-bedroom apartment) or $500 (2-bedroom apartment) security deposit on your valid credit card. This transaction is called a ‘Authorisation’ and is simply a hold on funds, it does not get transferred to us unless we ‘Capture’ it later. Like most accommodation providers, this security covers keys, damage etc, its very unlikely it won’t be released and we will always tell you if it’s not going to be released. Unfortunately, if you cannot provide this information we won’t be able to assist with your check in.
