Very clean - surprisingly clean even! Simple but warm in atmosphere - my husband was surprised that I booked this place (we’re in our 60’s) but it was outstanding & charming. We highly recommend if you’re looking for convenient location & simplicity.

Trevligt

Jag har aldrig bott pÄ hösten tidigare, detta var en mycket positivt upplevelse. HÀr fÄn ingen mat att köpa men ett stort kök att laga egen mat i, bar fanns och en mycket trevlig och hjÀlpsam personal! Vi hade ett rum med dusch men ingen toalett. Toaletten fanns pÄ samma vÄning sÄ det var inget problem. Vi kan tÀnka oss att ÄtervÀnda.
