4 out of 5
Wir hatten eine grosse Ferienwohnung im ersten Stock. Toller Gemeinschaftspool mit Bar. Unkompliziertes Check-in und Check-Out. Allerdings haben uns allgemeine Infos gefehlt. Eine Infomappe in der Wohnung wäre gut. Auch wäre ein Starterkit mit Abwaschmittel und Putzlappen sinnvoll. Die Küche war an und für sich gut ausgestattet, allerdings haben wir auch Sachen wie z.B ein Brotmesser vermisst. Der Früchtekorb zur Begrüssung und die frischen Brötchen jeden Morgen waren toll. Der tägliche Putzdienst war für uns aber zu früh, sodass wir meist darauf verzichtet haben.
