Farkas Vendégház is set in Balatonszentgyörgy and offers a restaurant, free bikes and a terrace.
“It's a large upstairs apartment: two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom and a separate wc. In reality it looks better than in the pictures (they should take new ones in better light). It's pretty well equipped. Beaches and other places of interest in Balaton are very near especially if you have a car. (If you don't you maybe should get accommodation closer to the lake). The owners are very friendly, although they themselves hardly speak any English or German at all. When we arrived, their son was there to tell us about the place, his English was very good, he also gave good tips about places to visit. Most likely the earlier negative reviews are due to him not being there...
Parking is available on the property and you get a remote to the gate. Overall this place was very nice, no problems at all and value for money was excellent!
Some info for other guests and ideas for the owners:
They have a dog. It's friendly and if you want they keep it in a kennel.
There's AC for an additional cost. This cost is 0,2 €/kWh. That's inexpensive and if the weather is not hot you don't have to pay anything at all. They should put this on the Booking info, it's not a fixed or an expensive price.
As the owners themselves don't speak any languages, it would be a good idea to ask their son to write an info leaflet about the place - the AC, the dog, how the locks work, which garbage bin is which (this we could not figure out), nearby restaurants, etc.for future guests. Especially if the son can't be there every time foreign guests arrive.
Also, accepting card payment through Booking would be a plus, people find it more reliable that way. (This place was totally reliable in any case). With better pictures and a better "process management" they could increase the price significantly and it would still be a great deal...
In any case, many thanks for a great place to stay during our vacation in Balaton!”
