Idyllisch gelegenes Rustico
Wunderschöne, ruhige Lage, die man sich auf einem schmalen Weg verdienen muss (20 Min von Malvaglia aus).
Im Rustico ist alles nötige vorhanden, die Einrichtung etwas zusammengewürfelt. Verschiedene Küchenutensilien, insbesondere die Pfannen sollten dringend ersetzt werden, die Schublade mit den Kochlöffeln war etwas schmuddelig.
Betten und Gartenausstattung bestens!
