The pet policy. Dogs are allowed, but on conditions. A non-refundable cleaning fee applies, and your pet must be registered before arrival under the property's formal pet agreement. Pre-booking is required, and you must contact the hotel directly before booking to confirm a pet-friendly room is available. Public summaries do not spell out breed or size limits, so confirm those at booking rather than assuming.
