Fantastic location and plenty of space however lots of little things broken or in need of some love. Front door handle/lock screws falling out, toilet seat, shower drain to name a few. The floor didn’t feel like it had been mopped and branches needed a good wipe on arrival.

Great location, around the corner to everything. We had some issues connecting to the Wifi as what was on the site was not working. After struggling for a bit we called the host who was very abrupt and not overly helpful.The living/kitchen room area did not have a heater, but there was one in a closet in one of the bedrooms that we were able to move to that area to make it comfortable. Very large and roomy.

Home surrounded by beautiful scenery.

The check in process was easy and the house was mostly as described however, many different aspects of the house show use and damage which need to be fixed. The surrounded area had many places to visit, including restaurants, walks and shops.

Great location in Franz Josef

This was a comfy house for my family and I to stay in while visiting Franz Josef. Great walkable location in town. The shower was clogged with hair when we arrived which we resolved, though the owners did respond promptly to our message about this concern. Beds were comfortable and clean. We appreciated the supply of toys which our 3yo enjoyed.
