Nydelig område med fantastisk basseng midt mellom husene. Store rom med deilig uteområde (balkong). Tilbereding av frokost som ble servert på balkongen - topp start på dagen. Hyggelige ansatte.

Soggiorno africano

Positivo il soggiorno stile africano, poco chiari riguardo al pagamento della cena. Meglio accordarsi prima o andare a fare la spesa con loro se si ha tempo. Una volta se ne è andata la luce ma dopo poco è ritornata, hanno attivato il gruppo elettrogeno probabilmente che faceva rumore dal mio appartamento. Dopo un' ora ha smesso.
