There is a kitchen, a semiautomatic washer/dryer, breakfast buffet. It is very thoughtful. There are pots and pans utensils, very convenient. The washer is a plus. The Only thing that is not as expected is the water flow/sip out of the shower stall, we need to wipe it dry from time to time.

Excellent stay! 10/10
Excellent location right off the Ring road. The room is excellently appointed - especially the kitchen. There was even an oven! Situated in a pretty area next to a stream - there’s even a little picnic area. I’d gladly book again!
