This is a wonderful house with lots of space and a great location in Franz Joseph. It had a well equipped kitchen, lots of space in the living room, and three bedrooms. There is only one bathroom, but the other spaces make up for that. We really enjoyed our stay there.
Host was very responsive and helpful; house was comfortable and very close to town so we could walk where needed. We did reduce our stay mainly due to poor weather and not a lot to do in Franz Josef
Comfortable, within walking distance of shop and restaurants, and easy access. Rooms were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. With short hikes nearby and loads of destinations at a distance we had a great time even in the spring rain.
The host had left a nicely stocked pantey. Beds and linens were very nice. Bedroom number 3 was a bit if climb, 4th floor, most of us on upper floors left our luggage on the ground floor bedroom. One thing we missed wefeany kind of electrical outlets with a mirroe close enough to dry hair or put on .makeup, none of floors had that.

It was a great location and spacious for a family.The property had an overwhelming aroma and lacked cleanliness in bathroom and kitchen. The toilet seat was not fully secure.

Apart from a few hiccups, it was a pleasant enough stay.
Can walk to most hikes to the glacier so ideal for a 2-3 day stay. The house is comfortable and well stocked and centrally located. It was great for our needs.
This house looks good in the pictures, but unfortunately, the property is run-down and dirty. The house is in a good location and everything is walkable as indicated, but spider webs abounded in the corners of the walls, the shower/bathroom had not been cleaned for our arrival, and the beds were adequate but not comfortable. I'm not fussy about stuff like this unless it's REALLY noticeable. It was REALLY noticeable.
I spent there with my family a very nice stay! The house is very clean, very well equipped and beautiffuly decorated, quiet and pleasant. I recommend it without a doubt!
