Gîte Le Hissala

Wonderful
Traveller Type: Solo Traveler
  : A wonderful townhouse, in a spectacular location. Directly on on the circular "main street" that wraps around the old town; look out your window or step out your door and you are surrounded by the charming Alsatian character of this beautiful town. There is plenty of space to live in, the kitchen has a nice table and is fully equipped for meals. There is a dedicated parking space right outside, need to lock/unlock a padlock for access but once accustomed it's fine. The two smaller bedrooms are very small indeed, but the master bedroom is spacious, lovely and appealing. A very comfortable, enjoyable place which I would love to return to. Be aware that payment (including security deposit) are in cash. This was not a problem for me.
  : Significant agility needed; the rooms are on four different levels with a fairly steep spiral staircase connecting them. Level 1 is living area, level 2 is kitchen, level 3 is the "kid's bedrooms" and the bathroom, while level 4 is the "master bedroom". Host was lovely but communicates only in French; if your French verbal skills are limited (as were mine), it can be difficult. The fact she does not receive/send texts makes it more challenging, since texts can be translated by an app but a voice conversation cannot.
