Disliked: Amenities
This property was in a beautiful spot and was comfortable to stay there. Unfortunately the kitchen was not stocked at all. We have stayed at other AirB&Bs and they all had minimal items needed: paper towels, dishwasher soap, one morning’s worth of coffee, olive oil, spices. This property should have all this to give it a perfect rating.

Das Zimmer ist sehr gross und sauber das muss ich Kompliment sagen. Die Einrichtungen sind hoch modern. Leider die Beschreibung mit blick auf See hat mir gefehlt. Schade, dass es kein Balkon gibt. Garage? Pass für grosse Auto schwierig rein. Sonst o. k.
