The options are either to check if you can provide healthy veggie food or to ask when you book the reservation hoping to get a positive response. The exceptions we know are the accommodation in the Arabian area (here you can find salads, hummus and various fruits at breakfast) and India.<\/li>\n \t<li>another option for breakfast is to rent a room \/ kitchenette suite and eat in the morning just healthy stuff that you take yourself from the store. You do not need to cook anything, you can find various things already prepared\/cooked (such as raw soups, hummus, salads etc.) super healthy at the supermarket. \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-tadv-p=\"keep\"><span class=\"tlid-translation translation\"><span class=\"\" title=\"\">Other sites where you can find information on how to find accommodation:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n \t<li data-tadv-p=\"keep\"><span class=\"tlid-translation translation\"><span class=\"\" title=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.promotrips.ro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Promotrips<\/a> has an interesting article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.promotrips.ro\/2016\/07\/cum-sa-cauti-cazare-ieftina-pentru.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> (only in Romanian).<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-tadv-p=\"keep\">Dear fully,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Sebastian and Catalina<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accommodation search can be made either with a promotional offer from Travelator or Aventurescu (only Romanian language) or by searching for accommodation by desired dates on: One of the search engines that look for prices on multiple sites, online agencies, hotel chains: Hotelscombined, Trivago or HotelScan.
