Gute und günstige Alternative zu einem Backpacker
Wann kann man schon in einem Haus schlafen, dass eine "Nationale Monuments"-Plakette trägt ? Das Guest House befindet sich etwa 200 Meter vom Haupthaus, wo die Rezeption, die Bar und das Frühstück serviert wird. Zimmer ist sehr ruhig, WIFI ist kostenlos und auch sehr gut, zum Fernsehen hatte ich keine Fernbedienung und das Duschwasser wurde nie warm und kaltduschen ist nicht so mein
