The room was small but suited us, the bed was extremely comfortable and clean which was lovely after our travel day. The room had a kettle and microwave as well. The owner was very nice and we had a lovely breakfast too. A deposit is needed for the room which was completely fine with us. You get this back when you check out.
The bathroom needs a bit more TLC. The shower was very rusted and the drains clogged up very quickly.

...wegen BETTWANZEN! Vorsicht! Nur die erwachsenen Tiere sind zu sehen und auch die verstecken sich gut. Wir hatten allerdings mehrere davon im Bett und mussten mitten in der Nacht einen anderen Schlafplatz finden (Flug ging am nächsten Tag). Die junge Mitarbeiterin im Halbschlaf an der Rezeption war mit der Situation überfordert und konnte uns keine Lösung anbieten. Über booking.com versuchen wir nun die Unterkunft (die das Geld natürlich berits im Vorhinein abbucht) zu erreichen, aber die stellen sich tot. Echt sehr blöde Erfahrung, die ich keinem wünsche! Hier werden wir ganz bestimmt nie wieder buchen!
