Good option along rte 1, nice room!
The coffee shop was closed while we were there and we had to wait a few minutes for an employee to show up and check us in. The common areas for microwave and tv were nice. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was renovated and beautiful!

Great view and comfortable bed.
Very great guesthouse. Has the feel of a college dorm room, but with a private bathroom. The beds were comfortable and clean. The view was awesome! Be sure to not arrive past 8pm because there will be nobody to check you in. We got lucky and arrived just as the owners were leaving.

Le lit est confortable, la salle de bain et la chambre sont propres. Par contre dès notre arrivée on nous informe que tout est fermé dans le village et qu'il faudra faire de la route pour trouver de quoi manger. Si comme nous vous comptez y séjourner après une longue journée de route, prenez vos dispositions ! Le lendemain matin nous n'avons trouvé personne à qui remettre les clés, tout était fermé et nous avons appelé e numéro de téléphone à joindre, la personne ne parle pas anglais... Cela est peut être dû à la saison mais cette guesthouse manque cruellement de présence humaine !

Der Herr, der uns empfangen hat, war ja ganz nett, jedoch ein bisschen seltsam. Das guesthouse an sich machte einen sehr runtergekommenen und schlechten Eindruck. Von innen dann wieder ok aber eher schlecht als Recht. Dieses guesthouse hatte ein seltsamen Klientel, was sich regelmäßig lautstark und rülpsend bemerkbar machte. Alles in allem haben wir uns in diesem guesthouse am unwohlsten gefühlt, auch wenn das Badezimmer eine moderne Dusche hatte. Aber wir hatten Haare im Bett gefunden und die vorhandenen Sessel waren so versifft, dass wir uns nicht trauten, irgendetwas darauf zu legen. Alles in allem die schlechteste Bleibe auf unserer Rundreise. Hier sind wir so schnell wie möglich wieder abgereist. Aber wie immer, überzeugt euch einfach selbst davon oder schaut euch woanders um.
