The 2 bedrooms were very tiny couldnt put luggage in and the bathroom very small but clean but I must say the shower was quite challenging being so small. The town was quite small and with nothing around but gives you a very quiet and relaxing ambiance. ##### Nathalie B. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ---
