Everything you need

the property has everything you need for a short stay; the „private garden“ is realy very small; some furniture should be replaced (e.g. the sofa) and the windows need to be cleaned sometimes;

Reasonable, not very clean

The location is not nice for a long time, you are very far away from all the beautiful areas. There is not much to do in the immediate area. The house was not very clean (spiderwebs and very dirty oven dishes, teapot and coffee pot that we did not use. The mattress on the bed is very bad (sagging) and the sofa in the living room is also sagging. The shower wall of the bath is leaking, causing the floor to become with a lot of water. The landlady was friendly and brought clean towels and sheets halfway through the stay
