Save yourself the disappointment and just DON’T.
The Airbnb is adjacent to an alleyway so every night of our stay we were awoken by avalanches of trash, specifically, glass bottles being thrown out from 11pm-3am. Between that was the sounds of people dragging trash cans, yelling, cars wizzing by, jolting us awake. This is admittedly not the owners fault but considering that the place is located behind the restaurant (which stays loud way past closing) it needed to be soundproofed.
That being said, the wall that faces said alleyways is just a garage door. The “cottage” is a garage with uninsulated doors that let all the cold air in and don’t hold any of the heat. We had both heaters cranked to high and were still wearing layered sweaters in the house.
The place was •immensely• dusty, covered in spiders and cobwebs. My allergies were horrible my entire stay.
If you’re taller than 5’10 you will wreck yourself because the ceilings are *very low*.
The bathroom is divided by a curtain that does not close, so absolutely no privacy. What’s worse is all that cold air gets in when you’re showering. 😭
A lot of things about this Airbnb show that it was slapped together without really thinking through function.
The Airbnb is located behind Gabbiano’s restaurant prep/storage space so there is no privacy whatsoever. You have to walk through the dining patio, past a giant flapping curtain that tries to cover the fact that the restaurant’s prep area, fridges are located outside…
I booked the place for the onsen but I never used it because it was just so completely awkward to have people dining and watching.
Cold and noisy. Not really what I would call relaxing or even comfortable. Not sure what other reviewers experienced but I regret booking this place.
Small upside, I appreciate that it’s dog friendly and had local coffee and teas.
