Les points forts : Propreté, arrivée, communication, emplacement et exactitude de l’annonce
The house is in a fantastic location, very central to most bars and restaurants. The house was gorgeous and perfect for a group of us going on a 2 night trip. I’d highly recommend this and hope to stay again in the near future
