Séjour agréable dans un lieu chaleureux et très propre!
Pros:

La propreté était au top! Chambre minimaliste avec de belles énergies, super propre, les poutres apparentes donnaient du cachet à l’établissement. Des petites bouteilles d’eau dans le mini frigo nous ont fait plaisir avec cette chaleur et un ventilateur dyson nous a aidé, malgré qui faisait chaud. Apparemment des climatisateurs sont prévus pour l’an prochain. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir!

Kleines, tolles und modern eingerichtetes Hotel. Schade, dass ich nur eine Nacht dort war.
Pros:

Gemütlich und modern eingerichtetes Zimmer, bequemes Bett, sehr leckeres Frühstücksbuffet mit selbstgebackenem, noch warmem Brot, selbstgemachten Konfituren, alles sehr liebevoll angerichtet. Da bei meiner Ankunft am Sonntag Abend das Restaurant geschlossen war und es im Dorf kein Alternativrestaurant gibt, wurde, wie vorgängig abgesprochen, in der Minibar ein Fleisch-/Käseteller mit Brot und kleinem Salat deponiert, der mir sehr schmeckte. Vielen Dank!

Cons:

Das Hotel liegt direkt an der Hauptstrasse im Dorf, welche jedoch nicht allzu stark befahren ist. Und trotzdem hört man ab und zu einen "Auto-Poser" vorbeibrettern.
