Super gemütliches Häuschen mit toller Terasse bzw. Wintergarten, ruhige Umgebung, wir waren vollauf zufrieden. Ausstattung basal, aber alles da, was man braucht. Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter unkompliziert und sehr nett. Nur die Anfahrt im Dunkeln war etwas schwierig, da Adresse bei Google nicht klar beschrieben, kamen von der falschen Seite und haben das im Grünen versteckte Haus nur mit Hilfe von Nahbarn gefunden ;-) Würden jederzeit wieder kommen!
