Sehr nette B&B Lodge in toller Gegend

Sehr schöne B&B Lodge. In einer Gated Community in einem der besten Stadtteile von JBurg. Mehrere Bungalows- die alle vollausgestattet sind (Kücheneck inkl Kühlschrank). Wunderschöne Anlage mit viel grün. Die Bungalows sind zwar etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber haben Charme. Pool genauso. Check in + personal sehr freundlich. Internet perfekt. Parkplätze kostenlos vorhanden. Bad könnte mal renoviert werden, ist aber nicht schmuddelig oder schlimm. Frühstück 5*+ - toll! Sehr zu empfehlen. Auch für Familien, da die Zimmer in den Bungalows Durchgangstüren haben. Def. Kein 5* Hotel - aber deshalb heißt es ja B&B Lodge. Wir würden def. Wieder kommen. Gutes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis
