“Comfortable stay in a great location”
Great location and an excellent base for cycling trips. There are plenty of bike trails nearby, surrounded by beautiful nature and scenic views. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The accommodation was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The kitchen had all the essentials we needed during our stay. We also appreciated that the hosts provided us with a microwave upon request.
