Bien équipé, bien agencée .Belle décoration et bien située.La literie est malheureusement à revoir.Malheureusement la propreté est à revoir entièrement aussi.Malheureusement des bêtes noirs on été retrouvés dans la salle de bain et chambre.
Excellent location for access to town and buses to all the resorts, lovely little apartment which was great for 2 people but wouldn’t want to have for people to stay as would have been tight. Only tv was orange box which I needed to retune and didn’t have access to most channels, could do with a smart tv do you have the option of signing into your own tv subscription so you can relax, would advise not taking a hire car as really tight street where damage was caused to our car even though parked out of the way allowing access, appears other residents think it’s ok for them to park there but not you. Would definitely stay again but arrange different transport. Bit of a pain collecting key and returning it, don’t really see why there is not a key box that they send you the code before you arrive.

Such a wonderful place to stay while on vacation!
I stayed here with my husband and daughter and it was perfect for us! The bed and pull out where comfortable, the space was very clean and bright. The kitchen was perfect size for cooking meals in. There is plenty of storage space. The little community that the flat sits in was so charming and just a block from downtown. We loved it and will be back!
