I will start with the positives the place is in a good location and there were three of us so it was a good space for the three of us. The way the space is situated is kind of weird but check in instructions were very clear and the check-in process was very smooth. The place is decorated pretty, and it has a nice view. The negatives were that the shower was leaking. We sent multiple messages to the property manager and that property manager directed us to contact the local people. I’m not a property manager. I’m a person on vacation and it should not be my responsibility to take care of that. I just thought that was such a ridiculous request. There’s also terrible lighting in the bathroom. There’s also limited shelf space there’s also no trashcan in the restroom so we had to always go to the living room to throw the trash. We had to create our own trash can in the living room. there’s limited privacy. The bed was not comfortable at all. In fact the sofa bed was more comfortable, and it was larger than the main bedroom. it was very hot like we turned the AC as low as we could go, but that feels more like a climate change issue. I don’t know that I would stay there again.

This property was in a beautiful spot and was comfortable to stay there. Unfortunately the kitchen was not stocked at all. We have stayed at other AirB&Bs and they all had minimal items needed: paper towels, dishwasher soap, one morning’s worth of coffee, olive oil, spices. This property should have all this to give it a perfect rating.

Das Zimmer ist sehr gross und sauber das muss ich Kompliment sagen. Die Einrichtungen sind hoch modern. Leider die Beschreibung mit blick auf See hat mir gefehlt. Schade, dass es kein Balkon gibt. Garage? Pass für grosse Auto schwierig rein. Sonst o. k.
