hote à recommanderJuly 2017
Die Familie ist sehr freundlich aber der Rest läst zu wünschen übrig.
Unser Zimmer steht nicht auf der Internetseite der Familie.(Altes Kinderzimmer der Tochter)
Das Zimmer war sehr gross aber nicht unbedingt sauber. Die Tür konnte weder geschlossen noch verschlossen werden.
Das Badezimmer entsprach überhaupt nicht unseren vorstellungen(Alter Holzsitz auf der Toilette,Dusche und Waschbecken dreckig überhaupt nichts sauber gemacht, keine Heizung)
Die Küche sah leider auch nicht anders aus.
Diese Unterkunft können wir nicht weiter empfehlen.November 2016
points positifs : bon accueil, et Rita est arrangeante pour les horaires. appartement privatif
poele dans le salon, sympatique surtout en automne/hiver!
cuisine spacieuse
salle de bain propre et fonctionnelle
points négatifs : hygiene des draps pas top et le wifi ne capte pas (trop loin de la maison principale)
Autre : pas de petit déjeuner (à part thé ou café..)July 2016
My boys stayed with this family as guests, but left as friends. They were so kind and friendly to them. Rita prepared food for them and looked out for them. They opened their home to them and treated them like family. Thank you, Rita for taking such great care of them!!!

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
