29. POSITION OF KLODGE AS AN INTERMEDIARY
KLODGE operates as a mere real estate intermediary towards the Client and as an agent with representation in the interest of the owner of the property: therefore all legal responsibilities and obligations imposed on the landlord and descendants from the rental agreement concluded by the customer are the sole responsibility of the property owner. If the execution of the Lease Agreement becomes impossible for reasons not attributable to KLODGE and instead attributable to the Owner (including the hypothesis in which the Property is subject to sale, seizure, foreclosure or auction), KLODGE undertakes , alternatively and at its discretion, to immediately return to the Customer the rent already paid or, where possible, to propose to the Customer a similar property, in the same area and at the same economic conditions.
30. WITHDRAWAL BY THE OWNER AND REPLACEMENT OF THE PROPERTY
In the event that the Owner is forced to cancel the Customer's reservation for reasons beyond its will or due to force majeure, KLODGE will identify, in agreement with the Customer, a new Property with the same requirements or the same level of the one previously booked. In the event that the price of the new property is lower than the property booked, KLODGE will refund the customer an amount equal to the difference, while if the price of the new property exceeds the amount paid by the customer the latter, by accepting the proposed Property, will be required to pay the difference in the higher price. In the event that the Client accepts a replacement of the Property following his complaint, he will have nothing else to request and / or expect, neither from KLODGE, nor from the Owner of the accommodation previously booked and then replaced. If the parties are unable to find an agreement on the replacement of the Property, upon receipt of the written cancellation of the Agreement by the Customer, KLODGE will refund the amounts paid excluding the Agency Fees. Under no circumstances will KLODGE and the Owner be obliged to pay hotel bills or alternative accommodation.
