"Is a great space for the whole family. We had 8 of us stay (2 adults, 6 kids) and we didn't feel at all short of space. Great to have a full kitchen available and washing machine too. The Bach is modern and comfortable. The check in process was flawless and the host was easy to talk to. We would fully recommend this Bach."
