Please note that we will assess a fee of 422.00 EUR if you must cancel after this deadline. "

What would you make of this? I assume it actually is "cancel for free" until July 18? I mean, I assume rate rules itself should override the title?
I would double check with MR before you book it. It might be a system error and the rate is actually non refundable so better be safe than sorry.
