Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

#### Fabuleux, paisible, beau à l extérieur comme à l'intérieur

Nous apportons tout de même une critique sur l équipement vaisselle en general( poêle à changer, pas d'essoreuse salade par exemple. Un parasol manquait cruellement pour manger dehors et des chaises plus hautes vu la taille de la table dehors.
