Questions about A Sunflower Stop - Hostel

What time is check-in and check-out at A Sunflower Stop - Hostel?

Check-in is from 1:30 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 A Sunflower Stop - Hostel allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at A Sunflower Stop - Hostel?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does A Sunflower Stop - Hostel have Wi-Fi?

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

Does A Sunflower Stop - Hostel 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.

How do I book A Sunflower Stop - Hostel?

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.
