Lovely and clean unit, handy to the township. Good clear communication from host. Would be helpful if one of the photos or the description revealed that this cottage is only 20 metres from the main road. I had expected it to be more secluded and quieter.

Heerlijk verblijf
Heerlijk ruim verblijf net buiten centrum Franz Josef. Aan de kleinste details is gedacht, heel geordend en schoon. Comfortabel kingsize bed. Het uitzicht is fantastisch. Ik zou er een volgende keer weer boeken.
