Achtung Schimmel

Wir haben die Unterkunft am Anreisetag besichtigt, aber aufgrund von erheblichen Mängeln (Schimmel an den Vorhängen, feuchte Wände, unangenehmer Geruch, mangelnde Sauberkeit) entschieden, nicht einzuziehen. Vor Ort haben wir dies mit Ruth (der Mutter der Gastgeberin) besprochen. Sie meinte, wenn wir nicht bleiben wollen, sollen wir wieder gehen, und wir müssten nichts bezahlen. Auf diese Vereinbarung haben wir uns verlassen und haben uns eine neue Unterkunft gesucht.Leider war auf das Wort der Gastgeberin kein Verlass – obwohl sie uns vor Ort zugesichert hat, dass wir nichts bezahlen müssen, hat sie dies später gegenüber Vrbo nicht bestätigt. Vrbo bietet in solchen Fällen keinen ausreichenden Schutz, weshalb wir auf den Kosten sitzen geblieben sind, obwohl wir die Unterkunft nie bezogen haben.

Einzigartige Idylle

Bei Rosie kommt man sich vor wie im Paradies: Überall Blumen, Sitzgelegenheiten ein kleiner türkiser Pool, Pferde und Hinde laufen herum! Außer Vogelgezwitscher hört man nicht viel, es ist absolut still. Wer also ein ruhiges, idyllisches Plätchen sucht, nimmt auch das Stück unbefestigte Straße gerne in Kauf. Das Häuschen ist günstig gelegen, man kann sogar zu Fuß zum Strand bzw direkt eine Wanderung nach Lagos beginnen, aber auch mit dem Auto nach Luz ist es nixht weit. Das Häus ist geschmackvoll und künstlerisch eingerichtet. Die Küche könnte etwas besser ausgestattet sein und alles ist ein wenig rustikal. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und wir würden wiederkommen.
