This is a wonderful house with lots of space and a great location in Franz Joseph. It had a well equipped kitchen, lots of space in the living room, and three bedrooms. There is only one bathroom, but the other spaces make up for that. We really enjoyed our stay there.

The host had left a nicely stocked pantey. Beds and linens were very nice. Bedroom number 3 was a bit if climb, 4th floor, most of us on upper floors left our luggage on the ground floor bedroom. One thing we missed wefeany kind of electrical outlets with a mirroe close enough to dry hair or put on .makeup, none of floors had that.

This house looks good in the pictures, but unfortunately, the property is run-down and dirty. The house is in a good location and everything is walkable as indicated, but spider webs abounded in the corners of the walls, the shower/bathroom had not been cleaned for our arrival, and the beds were adequate but not comfortable. I'm not fussy about stuff like this unless it's REALLY noticeable. It was REALLY noticeable.

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.
