Tien toisella puolella oli pesula. Ilmainen polkupyörien lainaus oli kiva juttu. Oma huone omalla kylpyhuoneella oli väsyneiden matkalaisten mieleen. Ruokakauppakin löytyi kävelymatkan päästä. Muut majoittujat olivat todella mukavia. Oli turvallinen ja yhteisöllinen fiilis. Kahvi kuului hintaan ja keittiötä sekä jääkaappia sai käyttää, kunhan siivosi jälkensä.

Ilmastointi ei toiminut huoneessa, joten yö oli aika tukala. Onneksi huoneeseen oli tuotu tuuletin ja uuden ilmastoinnin asennus oli käynnissä.

Nur für eine Nacht mit viel Toleranz

5.0

Entsprach unseren nicht allzu hohen Erwartungen

Zimmer war für eine Nacht akzeptabel, allerdings ist der Preis für die Übernachtung viel zu hoch. Beide Kühlschränke in der Küche wie in einer WG - dreckig, verkeimt, unordentlich mit vergammelten Lebensmitteln
