We hadden eerst een kamer met een klein bed en onze host heeft ervoor gezorgd dat we een andere kamer hadden met groot bed mits een opslag.
Hosts zeer vriendelijk en raadgevend! Alles een beetje oubollig maar toch functioneel.
Weinig licht in de kamer. een paar kleine lampjes zou de zaak veel gezelliger maken.
