Przemiła właścicielka. Atmosfera domowa. Skromnie, ale woda pitna i lodówka na plus.. Blisko plaży. Dla ciekawych różnych religii, Hostel w dzielnicy muzułmanów.
Brak ławki w pięknym ogradzie gospodyni.

Questions about 20 House Arugam

What time is check-in and check-out at 20 House Arugam?

Check-in is from 12:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does 20 House Arugam allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at 20 House Arugam?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Is breakfast included at 20 House Arugam?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does 20 House Arugam have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does 20 House Arugam have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at 20 House Arugam?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 12:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book 20 House Arugam?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
