Amazing location for a bargain price

A really good accommodation with Marco being a super helpful host. Good WiFi and amazing location with easy access to N2. You need to have a car as there isn't much in immediate vicinity. If all 3 guests came with cars then parking might be tight but we didn't have any problems

Adorei todos os meus dias da hospedagem. Desde o cuidado nas mensagens pelo Marco antes de chegarmos e a recepção pela Michele. Um agradecimento e elogio a parte pelos cafés da manha que são impecáveis e maravilhosos. Os quartos são espaçosos e aconchegantes, quentinhos, limpos e bem iluminados. A cozinha era ótima tambem para fazer refeições a noite e foram muito tranquilos em ceder a garagem para deixar o carro que alugamos. Nenhuma reclamação, apenas uma experiencia muito boa e positiva. Obrigado a todos pelo cuidado.
