Nous étions tellement bien dans notre logement que nous aurions voulu prolonger le séjour ! Les négociations avaient bien commencé avec la disponibilité et la tarif puis des réponses plus qu’aléatoires pour la procédure de modification du séjour, donc sans succès. Nous avons pris un hôtel pour pouvoir prolonger notre séjour, c’est vraiment dommage vu que nous étions bien dans l’igloo 3.
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour en famille. Appartement propre et bien chauffé. Départ ski au pied à 100 m des bennes de Montroc. Pas de commerces ou restaurant sur place mais très proche d’Argentiere.
Appartement agréable avec balcon qui offre une belle vue sur le Massif du Mont-Blanc dans le petit village du Tour. Très calme en été.
Propreté impeccable. Linges de maison propre.
Equipement électro-ménager correct.
Bel endroit pour 3 personnes, un peu petit avec une quatrième personne.
Appartement très fonctionnel où rien ne manquait. Belle vue sur le massif du Mont Blanc. Belle résidence soigneusement entretenue. Positionnement idéalau village du Tour, en bout de vallée et en hauteur (1400m), pour découvrir ce site grandiose loin du tumulte de Chamonix ou Saint Gervais.
