Summer stay
The place has a truly amazing view (that is if you are staying in the upper apartment) and the house itself is rather lovely. The lake is nice from a distance but people should be aware it is not really the best place to have a swim (muddy). Wifi works well too.
On the negative:
- while the apartment lists three rooms rather vaguely, the owner decided to only give us access to two, one with a double bed and the other with a simple bed. The logic being that we were only two. This was not clarified at any point before the stay. Quite disappointing as the missing room seemed much nicer. Also not great for two friends travelling, as one will get a small bed.
- The whole area (house and lake) is infested with insects. While the bed had some protection, the house has 0 (bare windows). It sounds silly but it makes the place incredibly uncomfortable at night, except if you are a entomologist.
- The upper floor has a gorgeous view but is extremely poorly insulated from the heat for such an old house. As a result, it's very very warm during the summer and there is no system to refresh the house. Also means you need to keep the window open at night, making the previous point even more uncomfortable.
- the checking is done fully by yourself and you receive instructions in a pdf document written in German. They do come the next day
- the living room is not comfortable: the only "sofa" is a mediaval wooden piece of furniture with a fine cushion and an old armchair. Barely seating 3.
