Chalet bien équipé, atout supplémentaire, toutes les chambres disposent d’une salle de bain/toilettes privées
Le chalet est tres bien situé pour toutes les activités sur Chamonix et les alentours
Très agréable maison avec une salle de bain par chambre et un sauna qui fonctionne. Très bien placé.
Petit moins: il serait bien d'avoir plus d'une serviette de bain par persone (deux par example)
