    The room was spacious and comfortable, with good heating and plenty of hooks. The kitchen was easy to use, and the room came with a small fridge, utensils, and a kettle. The bathroom was clean.

    We were very hesitant about bathroom sharing but it was a very pleasant experience. They about 10 steps away from our cabin and very clean, I never had to wait for the loo or a shower. The cabin was extremely cosy and the bed very comfortable.
