Pros:

Great location, quiet, clean. Perfect for a one night stay for one person - the space is small.

Cons:

The TV remote did not work, the heat pump could not be set to a cool temperature- it was extremely hot being February. The fan did nothing except make lots of noise.

Good location, but overpriced.
Pros:

Shower was nice. Location good.

Cons:

Was smaller than expected, and a little cluttered. Looked like it had only been given a quick clean, and was smelt slightly damp. Overpriced.

Pros:

Dass man einen abgeschlossen Bereich mit Terrasse hat und für sich allein ist. Saubere Zimmer, gute Betten.

Cons:

Für mich allein war der Platz gut ausreichend. Zu zweit wäre es ein bisschen eng.

This is a great property. The container room was very clean and had everything we needed. There was a restaurant on site but was closed when we were there.

Cons:

Had a weird smell in the shower.
