The Swedish runners saw one snake and some spiders, but no dangerous animals.
The hotel room had cupboards, a TV and a telephone, but no furniture... After some time we got simple beds and after some days we got two chairs and a small table. Anyway, we slept very well in the beds and were quite happy with the arrangement.
