You may not assert any claim or commence any suit, action or proceeding against Good.travel for an Accommodation Provider’s failure to perform a contractual obligation.

6. Accommodation Providers

While we take reasonable care when selecting Accommodation Providers, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information displayed on our Platform about their societal and/or environmental impact and/or their charitable contributions. This information is based on information shared with us by the Accommodation Provider and user feedback. It is the responsibility of the Accommodation Provider to ensure that the information displayed on our Platform is accurate and reliable. You are highly encouraged to inform us of any inaccurate information that you may notice on our Platform. In turn, we will do our best to rectify or remove such information entirely.
  2. The information that we provide on our Platform on Accommodations and services may deviate from the information on the website or Platform of the Accommodation Provider. The Accommodations and services of the Accommodation Provider displayed on our Platform are in no way exhaustive or indicative of all available Accommodations or services that the Accommodation Providers provide. It might very well be possible for the Accommodation Provider to offer additional Accommodations or deals.

In case you have a late or delayed arrival on the check-in date or only arrive the next day, you must make sure to (timely/promptly) communicate this with the Accommodation Provider to avoid the cancellation of your Booking by the Accommodation Provider or to charge you a no-show fee.
