This accommodation is not a regular hotel room, is actually a curious mini-apartment where the legend says that was inhabited by Tareg, a hobbit librarian. Once inside, on the right hand side there is a bedroom with a bunk bed and on the left there is an en-suite bedroom with a classic size double bed. The miniature bathroom has a shower enclosure with shower, a toilet, a sink and a window. Everything you need is just there for you. The design of this room is inspired by old libraries and you’ll feel overwhelmed of books due to the mirroring effect created by the ceiling made of antique mirror. If you’re suffering of claustrophobia, this is not an experience we recommend for you. Flat screen TVs are in both rooms, USB plugs, free WiFi, coffee/tea maker, hairdryer, iron and iron board, space for your clothes and suitcases.
