Älteres Haus, aber mit tollem Ausblick

Sehr schöne Umgebung mit Blick in die Berge. Kostenlose Parkplätze direkt neben dem Haus. Räume gemütlich und rustikal mit umlaufendem Balkon. Das Bad war neu und modern. Die Bettwäsche hätte etwas neuer sein können. Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich. Der Preis ist vollkommen ok.

Hôtel calme et sympathique

J'ai failli ne pas pouvoir dormir à l'hôtel, car il y a eu un soucis entre l'hôtel et le site Hôtel.com. l'hôtel n'accepte plus les chiens et sur le site c'était indiqué l'inverse. Les propriétaires m'ont quand même hébergé avec ma chienne

Bon rapport qualité prix

Chambre très propre mais minuscule avec vue sur une route passante donc du bruit. Baignoire sans paroi de douche ni fixation pour le pommeau de douche donc on met de l'eau partout. Accueil irréprochable, beaucoup de charme si on aime la déco montagnarde. Bon rapport qualité prix. Petit déjeuner très bien. Mais vraiment chambre minuscule.

Il fait bon descendre au Kandahar. Nous sommes très bien reçus et le service est très familial et attentionné. Un petit bémol concernant les toilettes de notre chambre très petit. Nous avons testé le restaurant aussi. Bonne bouffe, attention à la cuisson de la viande mais l'erreur a été vite réparée. Aliments de qualité et frais dès que c'est possible. La charcuterie est excellente. À essayer!
