Inside of the house is very cold, it took all day to heat it up. the house is quite old and the neighbors are very audible, so we had to talk in a whisper.The Internet is weak and there are a lot of restrictions on its use. Upon arrival, they immediately give a list of restriction rules, not a good start for me. there is almost nothing in the area, so if you're tourist, it is better to stay closer to the old town.

Not a shabby place at all, but if you are taller than 5’7” then you’re in danger of crowning yourself repeatedly (like me). :-)
