Nov 4, 2019 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy #### Schlechte Erfahrung Das Haus ist sehr alt und hat einen gewissen Charme. Richis ist ein ruhiges, typisches Dorf in einer reizenden Landschaft. Wir hatten das Casa Arthur für 8 Nächte gebucht. Leider wurde unser Aufenthalt gleich zu Beginn getrübt, weil die Vermieterin uns mitteilte, dass uns ein Teil des Hauses nicht zur Verfügung steht, da sie in einem Zimmer andere Gäste übernachten lies. Außerdem wohnte sie mit auf dem Grundstück in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Haus und wir teilten uns den Garten. Dies stand jedoch nicht in der Beschreibung. Sie erklärte dies damit, dass sie in der Vergangenheit schon Ärger mit Mietern hatte und nun aufpassen müsse, dass alles in Ordnung sei, wenn wir da sind. Ihre zwei großen Hunde liefen im Garten frei herum. Die Matratzen im Haus rochen extrem muffig, das Wasser im Bad roch modrig. Wir fühlten uns von Beginn an sehr unwohl. Wir wollten in unserem Urlaub Privatsphäre und Ruhe und hatten deshalb dieses Objekt gebucht. Auf unsere Versuche, mit ihr über die Situation zu sprechen, reagierte sie äußerst abweisend und konfrontativ. Sie meinte, wir hätten das Haus schließlich zu einem sehr günstigen Preis erhalten, außerdem wären wir nur zu zweit und würden nicht so viel Platz brauchen. Unseren Hinweis, dass wir einen Mietvertrag für das gesamte Haus hätten, ignorierte sie. Wir versuchten mehrmals, die Situation zu klären, aber leider ohne Erfolg. Darum reisten wir bereits nach zwei Tagen ab. Sie war mit unserer verfrühten Abreise einverstanden und bot uns an, uns das Geld für die restlichen Nächte zurückzuerstatten. Das Geld haben wir bis heute nicht bekommen. Wir haben eine sehr schlechte Erfahrung mit der Vermieterin dieses Objekts gemacht und können leider nur davon abraten. Einen Besuch Siebenbürgens dagegen können wir sehr empfehlen! Wir hatten dort auch sehr nette und herzliche Begegnungen. ##### cordula j. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sebastian S. Sep 9, 2018 #### Wonderful and lovely place We stayed for one week in this cozy house and we enjoyed every day. A treasured interior, a caring host and a great lanscape around. ##### Sebastian S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Nina a. May 7, 2018 #### Heart warming and full of history Casa Arthur is a very big, yet cosy place to stay. We loved to be in the garden for breakfast and dinner, or to look at one of the many books you can find in the apartment. Anna is a very friendly hostess. She welcomed us with soup made by one of her neighbours and even organised a private tour in the village of Richis and the church! It is a good starting point to explore the old Saxon villages nearby. But you could also easily stay within the house for a few days to relax and read some books :). Anna did a lot of work to make the house most comfortable, but as with all big and old houses, it will take a lot more work to make it perfect. Especially the bathrooms need some more work. But if you are not that demanding, you will be just fine. (We were fine!) There are a lot of beds in the house, so you can pick your favourite one to sleep on (they're all different matrasses, soft ones and hard ones). We were with five persons, and with 3 bedrooms (actually 4) we all had our own private room to sleep in. The place is very quite (except for the rooster and the church bells ofcourse ;) ), very neat, very cosy, and could be very romantic aswell. As for Anna, you could ask her anything, she is very helpfull. We definetly want to come back sometime! ##### Nina a.
