comfortably.
The smaller room now sports
a new sofa bed and is able to accommodate up to three adults at one time.
As you can see, we are a very small B & B operation. This

in discovering the city.
We live in the flat and can be available to give directions or
other information needed. If you scroll down, you will find our calendar of

If you bring a jar of Skippy or Jif peanut
butter, or a box of Bisquik, you will get our gushing appreciation,
sincere gratitude, and hugs upon request. People coming from
the US have lost their peanut butter going through security, when packed in
carry-on luggage. They did not get hugs as a result. : (

Reservation Request
Please
note that since we are so small, a cancellation with little notice does not
allow us to fill the room again. This is part of our livelihood, so your
consideration making a reservation is appreciated. We do not take deposits, but
depend on your sincerity for making a commitment.
Send an e-mail to
info@budabab.com with the following information:
Name:
Address:
Date and approximate time of arrival with mode of
transport (plane, train, car, hydrofoil, bicycle, walking, inline skates, and so
on):
Date of departure:
Number of nights: We have a TWO night minimum stay.

Room preference:
Check our calendar above for availability for your choice
of rooms and ask for a confirmation. After confirming, we will ask for your
arrival information. After you confirm your reservation, it will appear on the
calendar; see it above. No deposits are needed, as we trust you will cancel if
the need arises. If a room is booked at the time you need, double check with us
to make sure there has not been a cancellation.
Payment is preferred in Euros, due to our paying
commissions in Euros, but Hungarian
forints are accepted at the current rate of exchange at the local exchange
booth two blocks from us. To estimate the amount in Hungarian forints, you can
use the Currency Cheat Sheets link on our home page, and then use the 'typical
cash rate +4%' for doing your currency conversion. This will give you the
closest estimate for converting currencies on the street. If you prefer, you
can convert Forints for Euros at these booths also and then pay by Euro.
