Accommodation was adequate. Noise from the other unit was distracting but did not go past 10pm. Ended up parking vehicle on the road as a van was parked in our space.
Well located and very tidy.

Everything was as described. But it didn't mention that there is NO sink in the "kitchenette" which made things a bit tricky if you want to keep things tidy. I don't think the bathroom sink is where you need to do that. Communication with the manager was fast by email. The walls seem to be paper thin so we could hear the other tenants. They parked behind us and thankfully we saw it and told them to move their car (not sure what was communicated to them). Also, the room was cold when we arrived and the heater took time to warm up the room. The best had a mattress warmer which was nice at night. But it was ok for one night. The bathroom was clean and had all the essentials you need for a night.

It is very basic accommodation. It is an alpine location, and the bedding was a bit mean. Another blanket would help, plus flannels for shower. Extra towel would be nice for extended stays. Not well equipped for preparing your own meals, and dishes have to be washed in bathroom sink, next to toilet. Overall, just adequate. Shower needs a good clean.

Reasonably new and clean room. Good amenities but kinda gross the toilet brush was in the same cupboard as the cups! Studio is attached to the main house with interconnecting door. There was a family staying in the main house and we could hear their conversations- normal, not raised voices so it didn’t feel super private. Bedding was minimal - suggest you take your own pillow! Lovely heater kept the room warm though so not a major. Good place to stay if you just need a bed for the night.
