2/10 (1 review)
"Es war nicht genau das gebuchte Zimmer gemäss den Fotos. Der Balkon resp. Aussicht aber schon. Das Bad ist meiner Meinung nach sanierungsbedürftig. Der Duschboden, die Platten sind gesprungen wie auch manchen Orten in der Unterkunft. Ist wohl schon was älter. Die Fenster wurden neu gemacht."
