No WiFi. The staff told us that wifi router was broken for months. During our 2 night stay, we experiened 2 times of power outages, lasting 1 hour or so. Other than that, basic facility was ok and we had good sleep two nights.

Do not stay here. Very unpleasant.
This is a a local pub (and more) with rooms that are run down, insecure, dirty and very noisy. Avoid at all cost. Pictures on the website are very deceptive. My husband had to check out after one night - could not stay. The staff were lovely but had no power to change the condition and quality of the hotel. The owner was nowhere to be seen! You can get much better, cleaner and safer local hotels at a much lower price so don't be fooled by the apparently low price.

De kamers bevinden zich achter een bar, aan de uiteinde van het huis. De andere kant is een boerderij. Het is er heel rustig. De kamer heeft een volledige badkamer. De slaapkamer is ruim maar niet heel erg net, en dat was geen verwavhting voor de prijs.
