Accomodation
There was no airconditioning and we had 38 degree days. The battery in the remote controls for the fans were flat. A lake, which was visible from the window, had become a dried-out swamp. It gave off a terrible stench and was a hotbed for mosquitos. The beds were too soft.
Great cottage with awesome veranda in great location
Very good
