"Was not the most modern one, had some spots with mold, demolished wallpapers and a door, that had some issues. We could hear a lot of stuff going on at the floor and rooms next door. A funny thing was the camera on top of the house, that is shown in your television at the start. So you can watch the outside in real time. Nice lovely breakfast. All over it was an average stay. Payed too much for it. Definetly not worth. "
