I didn't like the fact that check-in starts late at 5 pm, and check-out is early at 10 am. Also, the photos do not correspond to reality. One gets the impression that bunk beds are a separate room...but this is not so and they are located right next to the bathroom...it would be some inconvenience if we rested in 4. In general, our apartments were clean. But there was mold in the bathroom. All these inconveniences were compensated by the distance to the bus station and the wonderful view from the window. The girls at the reception were also very friendly :)

The staff were so nice and helpful. I got stranded in Annecy and was going to be late for check in but they put my mind at rest and advised on late check-ins provisions. The views are stunning and everything is very close by. Decor is a bit dated but it suits the setting and was more charming than off putting. I would definitely recommend and use again.

Perfect for our needs
We stayed for a week on a snowboarding trip and were extremely happy. Check-in was easy (we did send an email before we arrived giving them our arrival info and we came during regular desk hours). The desk employees were very friendly and one spoke very good English. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. There was a ski locker downstairs so we didn’t have to bring our wet snowboard into the room each night. The bus stop (both for FlixBus from Geneva and the local bus to get around Chamonix was super close, just an around the corner. You can get to the ski mountains pretty easily this way, about 10 minutes to Brevent and up to 30 minutes for Grand Montets, Le Houche, etc. Restaurants and shops in the downtown area are a super close walk, and Aiguille du Midi is super close as well We rented a car for one night to go on a day trip and it was easy to add parking for that night and there was a secured garage. Would definitely stay again if I go back to Chamonix.

Basic accommodation, good value for what we paid. Little dated and tired in places. On criticism is parking, it isn’t made clear you ideally need to pre book, so have us a challenge when we arrived.

Absolutely zero amenities, no coffee, hard beds, no check in until 4:00 pm. They require a €200.00 deposit as well! It was also a super noisy area with noise all through the night! I did not enjoy this place!

Very convenient
The only downside to this property is that except for Saturdays the reception is closed between 12 and 4 so if you are arriving during this time just wait somewhere until 4pm. Super convenient if you don't have a car as the main bus station and the Aiguille du Midi train station are right there. Friendly and helpful staff. The free local shuttle stops right outside. On the river with a pretty walking path .. walk to everything i ended up staying 3 weeks here... cute self contained apartment with laundry options close by. Would definitely stay here again

I am very happy I found this place. It was late in the ski season but I feel I was still lucky. The staff is very friendly, the place is very conveniently located close to the buses that arrive / leave to Geneve and Courmayeur, so getting in and out of there was super easy. It is close to a couple bars and it hace a nice convenience store close by. I definitely would go back. Oh! and the prices were also very good.

Great location for the centre of chamonix, including shops bars restaurants etc. Close to local grocery shop and great views, however this property is not ski in/ski out, you need to catch a bus to the slopes or drive in a car, approx 10 mins. Even if there was loads of low level snow, ski in ski out would be impossible. Also sound proofing between rooms is appealing. We could hear next doors phone receive a text, and any movement above, sliding chairs or furniture, was louder than the TV in our apartment. I appreciate a skiing holiday is not about spending time in your appartment but somethings do become a little annoying after 7 days. Overall a good stay, but would consider alternatives if I were to return to chamonix
