Airbnb ⚠️ Things to know before you book This place is unique and charming, but not luxurious or like a 5⭐ hotel. Some important things to know: Bus interior height: 1.73 m (not suitable for very tall people or people with reduced mobility). Curtains that do not close completely → take a mask if you are sensitive to light. The toilet and bathtub are compact and functional, designed for an atypical experience. The bus is located in a campsite with other caravans and motorhomes — friendly atmosphere, not isolated.
