"The room was good, clean. Checking in was a little bit difficult as it required an online check in, and they give you a code, when you arrive you enter that code into a box, and it spits your key out. All without seeing a person. There is a very convenient kitchen with many items for a fee (honor system based). Location is outside of town by a 15 minute walk. Beautiful views. Shared balcony was unexpected however."
