Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 Archival ### 4/10 Poor #### Maria Dolores A. 16 Aug 2017 #### Quite poor/ bastante regular (English below) - El dueño cambió su disponibilidad para abrirnos en el último momento, y no pudimos entrar hasta casi las 12 de la noche, cuando nuestro plan era llegar a las 10pm (y nos había confirmado que no había problema). - nos pidió una fianza desproporcionada, de la cual no se decía nada en el anuncio - nos pidió dinero extra por usar sábanas y toallas (tampoco venía en el anunció) - la dueña llamó varias veces insistiendo en discutir el tema de la fianza, parece que su vista del contenido del anuncio era diferente de la nuestra, pero se resistía a creerlo. - el baño olía mal, y el jabón tenía pelos. - nos faltaba una sábana y una toalla, asi que nos tapamos con mantas que encontramos en el armario. - la parte buena: el chico que nos atendió, Ludovic, fue muy amable, aunque no fue la persona con la que habíamos hablado en un Principio. En fin, en general un poco desastre. Necesitábamos dormir después de un día largo de viaje y salir temprano, y esto no fue lo que esperábamos . - The owner changed availability to open us in the last minute and couldn't get there until almost midnight (our plan was to sleep around 10pm, which he previously confirmed was ok). - asked us for a huge deposit (not mentioned in the ad!) - also asked for extra money for using sheets and towels (not mentioned in the ad either) - the onwer called and insisted in discussing on the phone about this, it seemed her view of the content of the ad was different from ours and she resisted to believe it. - bath was smelly and the soap had hairs on it - we missed 1 towel and 1 sheet, so we took the blankets we found in a closet. - good thing: the guy that opened for us, Ludovic, was very kind. He was not the one we talked about the reservation though. Overall everything was quite messy and not relaxing. We really needed to sleep after q long day of traveling and get up early in the morning, and this is not what we expected. ##### Maria Dolores A.

Possibilité de stationner remorque et voiture. Pour le logement en lui même, les commodites sont dimples et suffisantes. Le lit mériterait une révision.
