HOUSE RULES
Effective from: 01.02.2024, until revoked
This policy applies to all houses operated by Staff House Zrt. and is binding on all residents – and applies together with the house rules specific to any actual building. This policy is a translation of the original Hungarian version; in case of a discrepancy, the Hungarian version shall prevail.
This policy sets out the rights, obligations and behaviour of persons living in the residential units and the related common units operated by Staff House Zrt. (“residence”) and other persons staying at the premises. It contains the basic rules which are essential for living together as a community and covers the proper and safe use of the houses, residential units, rooms, and equipment, maintaining their condition, and includes other relevant requirements that cannot be laid down in a separate set of rules.
It covers rules for the entire area of the residence, i.e. all the rooms of the real property and all persons who enter, use, permanently or temporarily reside in the house. Residents, visitors or other persons entering the premises are obliged to comply with the rules set out in the House Rules. Failure to comply with the rules may result in eviction or other legal sanctions for residents.
All residents must fully comply with all the instructions given to them by Staff House Zrt. staff.
