According to national legal regulations and those dictated by WHO (the World Health Organization) , the ideal temperature to be kept in the home should be around 20° C, with a maximum fluctuation of 2° over or under, so that means it should be between 18° and 22° C.
The thermostat is located on the wall in the hall opposite the master bedroom. You will be able to adjust the temperature by operating the buttons. Please do not exceed the normative 22°.
Pets in this house are unfortunately not accepted.
The Municipality of Cremeno does not charge Tourist Tax.
In Italy there is an obligation to report guests of non-hotel facilities to the police headquarters. The house manager is responsible for collecting and verifying guest data and reporting them to the police headquarters within 24 hours for stays longer than a day and immediately for stays shorter than 24 hours.
Failure to submit data in the timeframe prescribed by law is a criminal offense.
Italian law provides that for short rentals (i.e., up to 29 nights) it is not necessary to file a rental contract; nevertheless, for greater protection and clarity between the parties Nativoo calls for the signing of a set of house rules that clarify the obligations and rights of the parties.
About 24h before check-out Nativoo will send a message containing useful information to better manage the release of the property.
These rules can be viewed at this link: www.nativoo.it/check-out
