"Ottima comunicazione e reattività nei messaggi. Buona disponibilità del proprietario. L'alloggio è pulito e ha tutto il necessario. È un po' scomodo avere il bagno fuori dalla camera e le scale della casa sono strette. L'edificio e le camere sono state ristrutturate da poco. La camera è un po' piccola ma ha un balconcino privato che è comodo."
