This space can accommodate four guests, and the hallway leads to a kitchen with refrigerator and cooking facilities. Behind the kitchen is the bathroom with shower and toilet. When the weather is nice, you can relax in the spacious backyard. Here is also a table and chairs for 4 people. You don't have to share this garden, but it is adjacent to the host's.
