Therefore makes the floor with every step and you'll hear from the other other tourists. Rooms comfortable but simply furnished.

Unfortunately we had 2 times in the evening no warm water for showering and several electrical cables of the lamps was the isolationeschutz broken (dangerous!) We are therefore already earlier! … read more
