L’auberge était correcte. Très petite cuisine et une chaleur extrême à l’intérieur (difficile de manger à l’intérieur). Belle cours arrière. Je ne m’entendais pas à rencontrer un chien sur le balcon avant de la propriété et qu’il est acces à l’intérieur (désagréable lorsqu’une personne à peur des chiens) j’aurai aimé qu’il l’indique sur le site.
