Colife Accommodation Rules

Bills, weekly cleaning, tech support are included to the price. Deposit, commission charged extra. Please contact our manager for details.

Colife is a residential project designed for long-term rental. The minimum length of stay is 1 month

We love pets very much! But, unfortunately, it’s impossible to live with them in most of Colife’s apartments. We are ready to consider your application individually, please send our manager a photo of the pet, and we will send a request to the owner. The fee for living with the animal is $5500 HKD once.

Sure, we provide our guests with this opportunity. The cost of moving varies from $5000 HKD to $12000 HKD depending on the unit.

As for the deposit, it is transferred to another facility. It should be noted that not all properties permit relocation without forfeiture of the deposit. The Guest's manager will provide guidance on which properties are exempt from deposit forfeiture upon relocation.

When moving to a new apartment, a new contract is concluded.

.

If you want to move out earlier (you have lived less than the period specified in the contract), you need to notify us of your intention 30 days before the eviction: half of the deposit will be refunded if we are informed about check-out more than 30 days in advance (the deposit is 50% of the monthly rental price). If you failed to warn us/you have an urgent eviction, the deposit will be withheld in full.

Colife provides all its potential residents with an opportunity to see the room/apartment. In the last 14 days of your stay, we reserve the right to show your room to future residents. We assure you that we will warn you about upcoming visits.

If you book a private apartment, you can have guests visiting you day time or overnight.
If you rent a room in shared apartment, your friends can visit you in the daytime, from 10 am to 10 pm, but no more than two people during the day. Guests can’t stay in the apartment without you. We request you to warn your neighbors about upcoming visits in the chat to maintain harmonious relations inside the apartment.
If you want to invite a friend in the nighttime offering him/her a place in your room, you should agree on this with us and your neighbors in the public chat room by providing us with the prospective guest’s full name and phone number. For the comfort of everyone in the apartment, guests in shared apartment cannot stay more than three nights a month.
The inviter bears full responsibility for the guests, including financial liability for property damage

In our apartments, problems with neighbors are rare, but if they have occur, remember:

We do not provide disposable slippers, bathrobes, or personal hygiene products in both rooms and apartments.
All our apartments are fully equipped with kitchen appliances, apartment decor, bed linens, pillows, blankets, and more.
Sets of bed linen and towels are not included in the rooms but can be provided upon request for an additional charge.

We do not change the configuration of apartments or rooms. If you want to purchase additional furniture and appliances, coordinate their installation with us. This can be done by contacting customer support

We care about  that the apartments have everything you need for a comfortable stay. In our kitchens there is always a set, a dining group, a stove, a refrigerator, a microwave oven, an oven, a set of dishes and cutlery, a frying pan, a saucepan, a knife and a trash can. From home appliances in the apartment you will find a washing machine, iron and ironing board, dryer, vacuum cleaner, cleaning kit. More detailed information on the equipment of the apartment can be found in the apartment/room card on the website

We provide everything you need, but such items as a vacuum cleaner, coffee machine, oven, dishwasher, toaster, water filter, rolling pin, potato masher, garlic press, etc. are
optional

The apartment is connected to the Internet and has Wi-Fi

The rental price has already included cleaning of common areas: kitchen, bathrooms and
hallway, 3−4 times a month. This service removes the burden of weekly cleaning from the tenants, but we really ask you not to forget to clean up after yourself and keep the apartment comfy.
If you are not satisfied with the quality of cleaning, immediately inform customer
support by attaching a photo / video.
Note. The room is your personal space, so cleaning there is not provided

If something is broken in the Colife’s apartment, you need to report the incident to customer support by attaching a photo / video of the breakdown. Remember, it is very important not to call the master by yourself, as you can stumble upon scammers. Our team will call to proven specialists to carry out diagnostics.
After determining the cause of the breakdown, there are two repair options:
1. At the expense of Colife, if the breakdown occurred due to the wear of equipment /
furniture.
2. At the expense of the tenant/s, if the reason is improper use. In this case, we will
help to repair the damage, but we will deduct the repair amount from the deposit.
With the next payment for rent, it must be replenished.
The repair time depends on the cause of the breakdown.
Note that Colife does not repair appliances and furniture left by the owner or previous tenants

In case of clogges, you must report the problem to customer support by attaching a photo / video. In the nearest scheduled cleaning of the apartment, specialist will use a remedy for clogges. If this measure does not help, we will call a plumber and coordinate with you the time of his arrival, as the master must be met by one of the tenants. Note that Colife pays for the call of a plumber if the cause of the clogges does not lie in
the improper disposal of waste — cotton swabs, personal hygiene products or food leftovers. Otherwise, we will deduct the cost of work in equal proportions from the deposit of all residents, which will need to be replenished with the next rental payment. The best remedy for clogges is to prevent it from happening. It is necessary to monitor the cleanliness of the sink and bathroom, cleaning up food leftovers and other waste

We kindly ask you not to forget to clean up after yourself and keep the apartment clean, as well as take care of the property.

If furniture cleaning is necessary in the Colife apartment, you need to promptly report the incident to customer support by attaching a photo/video.
It is very important not to call a master yourself, as you can stumble upon scammers.
The staff of Colife will call for you proven specialists for dry cleaning.
After determining the cause (food/liquid contamination, etc.) of contamination, there are two options:

1. At the expense of Colife, if the contamination occurred for a reason beyond the control of the current tenant
2. At the expense of the tenant/s, if the reason is due to careless handling. In this case, we will help to eliminate the contamination, but we will deduct the repair amount from the deposit.

With the next payment for the rent, it must be replenished.

You can buy a light bulb in the nearest store. If this is inconvenient for you, you can take a picture of the light bulb, send a photo to a chat with customer support. We will order a light bulb, and you will need to meet the courier and screw it on

You need to report the problem to customer support by attaching a photo/video, the date and time when you will be able to meet a specialist.
We ask you to check the air conditioner control panel yourself while writing a message: often the problem is in accidentally incorrectly set mode.

For each overdue day of payment, according to the contract, you are charged with penalties. We request you to always pay for your accommodation on time. If the remaining payment is delayed by more than 3 days, the contract is considered terminated with the retention of the deposit as a penalty

The deposit can’t be used as payment for the last month of rent. The deposit is an amount that is frozen for all duration of your rent and is reimbursed within five days after check-out and when you return the keys.
The deposit is required to protect the rented accommodation from negative factors, such as various damage of property, payment arrears, etc. It guarantees the fulfillment of all the contract terms

Under the agreement, we return your deposit within five days after your check-out and return of keys.

If you are sure of moving in, you can reserve a room for yourself for a period of three days. The booking amount is 10% of the monthly rental price, upon check-in, this amount is used to pay for the rent. After that the room will be assigned to you for three days. On the fourth day, it is necessary to conclude a contract and make full payment (if it is inconvenient for you to come in person, you can sign the contract online and exchange originals upon check-in).
If you change your mind about living in this apartment, the reservation will not be refunded and will not be transferred to another object
