This is not a 1 bedroom house as advertised. It’s a roadside shed with a pullout sofa. That you cannot walk around when extended to a bed. I have been emailing the host and management company since checkin time nearly a week ago with no response.

Klein aber fein.
Für 2 Personen wäre es mir zu eng gewesen. Jeden Tag Bett zusammenklappen ... und dann wohin mit Bettzeug, wenn der Kleiderschrank voll ist (Schubladen waren schon bei Ankunft voll)? So hab ich das Bett ausgeklappt gelassen uns mich drumherumgeschlängelt. Wenn man beim Wandern nass geworden ist, wird es noch knapper mit dem Platz. Wohin mit feuchter Kleidung?
Kurz: alles sehr schön und cosy aber man muss wissen, dass es eng wird. Ich hab mich aber sehr wohl gefühlt.
