Great location and a comfortable stay.

We stayed in the triple room, which had a double bed and a single bed, along with a private bathroom. The double bed was especially comfortable, and the room had everything we needed for a pleasant overnight stay.

Very low standards for the price

The room had a terrace with a nice view. The owner we met on the second day was friendly. It was quiet.

No classic backpacker accomodation as you know it

Man kann auf einem gesicherten Gelände parken.
