C'était un chemin de terre très caillouteux qui nous a obligés à faire 1/2 tour et finalement à dormir dans notre voiture( nous étions avec nos 2 enfants à 22h dans la nature !), sans moyen de communiquer avec la guest house. ##### Laurence Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lena Aug 7, 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Wir konnten auch nach der checkin Zeit noch anreisen.
