    I knew check in was at 4pm but wasnt prepared for lobby to be locked. The reception closed and lobby locked from 12-4, so had to wait outside on a rainy day with bags till check in at 4pm. Would be perfect if there washing machine, but not a deal breaker as there are laundrettes nearby.

    Location - very short walk to the sli bus stops Value for money Cleanliness Well equipped (exceot for washing machine) Beautiful view Will definitely stay there again!

    Location for buses and places to eat was great. Accommodation was good, nothing fancy but the price is good. All you need to be comfortable. Ski lockers are provided so are benches outside to get ready in morning. The bus stop for all ski options is a 5 mins walk and free with ski pass purchases. We had an apartment for upto 8 which may be a squash. There was only 3 of us so bunk for our son- he had two sets of them in his room- great for 4 younger kids. We had a double bedroom with wardrobe space which was good. Then there was a sofabed and hanging space in lounge. We didn't use other than as lounge so was great. If you were using as a bed too may be a pain. There is a table in the room too good size for 4, 6 at a squeeze. The kitchen is small but usable - no oven but microwave and induction hob. Bathroom had a bath and shower and hot water! We had an issue with kitchen sink as wasn't draining, this was resolved quickly by staff. There are lifts as well as the stairs so great after a day's ski. We arrived before check-in and were able to leave luggage in a provided room. This was a games room so those with younger children have an option of using the table tennis and pool tables if not skiing. All in all we were pretty impressed. The young lady on the reception was also very helpful 😊 15min walk into the main shopping restaurant area but more options close by Irish bar and a fab kebab place for those needing after apre munchies 🤣

    The room was a bit outdated, but considering the price you pay and how little you spend time there, it was not a big deal. All the essentials were there.

    The facility was very close to bus stations where the busses to/from Chamonix operate. Also staff was very informative and helpful before and during the visit.

    A bit of a squeezed layout, but still six (younger) people can feel comfortable and have a good time skiing. The size of the shower and spaces may not be for tall and large guys.

    Very clean and well kept. Very good location and good value for money.

    I did't like the fact the toilet paper wasn't included and we had to go to the supermarket to get it. They only leave one small roll and you have to buy it yourself from some shop if you need more which obviously is the case for multiple days and a family of 4. It doesn't make sense they leave you a cleaning kit in the kitchen with tabs for the dishwasher, and soap for doing the dishes, but they don't leave you toilet paper. I just think it's nonsense and it's the only negative for this place.

    The location was magnificent! Next to the main bus station and near the center to walk anywhere from there. Waking every morning and see the views from the window was something we really enjoyed! Had lots of beds to accomodate everyone in a nice way and the facilities available like the kitchen were great to cook the main meals.

    Extractor fan in bathroom wasn't working (reported to reception), which meant very steamy showers! Would also have been good to have extra toilet paper available to purchase at reception.

    Fantastic location only a few minutes' walk from Chamonix Sud bus station and Aiguille di Midi cable car station. Walking distance to the town centre with all its shops and restaurants.

    The desperately slow lift. It is in need of an update. The beige and orange tones of the 70s need to go. It had two bunk beds but four adults would have been a real squeeze.

    The location is excellent for a skiing trip being only 140 ski boot paces from the bus station. If you ski you’ll understand! Ski lockers are down just outside reception so you don’t have to cart skis and pole into the apartment. Compact suite with a comfortable drop down double bed. Well equipped kitchenette with dishwasher, kettle, toaster and a proper tea pot.
