STAY OPEN Reservations and Bookings Policy

These terms and conditions apply to all bookings made to stay at STAY OPEN, whether made

via the website (including all areas of the site), applications and software provided online and

made available offline through or in connection with the service, including through a mobile

device (collectively, the “Service”), by email, over the telephone or in person on premises. They

contain important information about your stay, workspace, and/or elective activities and we

kindly ask that you read these carefully. If there is anything you would like to discuss regarding

your booking or these terms and conditions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Types of Properties

Hospitality

STAY OPEN hospitality properties are for those seeking a short-term stay, akin to a hotel, but

with a built-in, activated, community with shared common areas to dine, work, socialize and

interact (“Hospitality”). Typical Guests include professionals, students, remote workers and

digital nomads. Guests at our Hospitality properties can book a pod or private room (only

available at certain properties) for one or more nights, at their preference, up to a maximum of 14

consecutive nights. Depending on time of year, Hospitality properties may require stays of a

designated minimum duration (e.g. “3-night minimum” during summer months or holiday

weeks). Such requirements will be stated on our website prior to booking.

Types of Accommodations

We typically offer two types of living quarters at Stay Open: Rooms and Pods. Some properties

may only have Pods.

STAY OPEN is committed to accommodating room type preferences and requests. Occasionally,

we receive more requests than are available at a particular STAY OPEN location. If this

happens, every effort will be made to meet your accommodation preferences.

Rooms

“Rooms” are private individual rooms, with a maximum occupancy of two (2) adults and up to

two (2) minor children. You may reserve as many Rooms as availability permits. Only available

spaces will display during the booking process.

When making a reservation, certain types of Rooms enable you to select a bed type, typically a

choice between one king size bed or two double beds. Choices vary depending on availability.

1

Pods

“Pods” are individual, private, bunk-style sleeping accommodations in shared hospitality spaces.

Each individual Pod is customarily equipped with a privacy screen, fan, reading light and a place

to plug in your electronic devices. As Pods are in shared spaces, depending on the configuration

of the individual property, you may or may not be able to request for your Pod to be in an area

with members of the same sex or opposite sex. When reserving a Pod, you will be asked a series

of questions so that we can attempt to make your experience with us to your liking. Please note

that while we have rules of conduct at STAY OPEN, we are not responsible for the conduct of

our individual guests.

For our Venice Beach property, please note that bookings are limited to no more than 2 pods per

reservation due to limited capacity.

Duration of Stay

Our accommodations can be reserved at our Hospitality properties for stays of varying lengths

ranging from as short as one day to a maximum stay of 14 nights.

Rates may vary depending on length of stay and time of year and whether a Guest has entered

into an Experience Provider Agreement with STAY OPEN.

Day Passes

Some of our Properties may also offer day-passes to use available co-working spaces. Day-

passes do not include an overnight stay and will allow the guest access to the co-working

facilities and common areas between 9am and 5pm, Monday through Friday with Federal

Holidays excluded (“Day Pass(es)”). Day Passes are subject to availability and rates may vary.

deposit collected is non-refundable. The fee balance for the remainder of your stay, plus an

incidentals fee of fifty dollars ($50) per day, will also be pre-authorized on your payment card;
