Ein einfaches aber durchaus angenehmes Hotel. Obwohl die Ausstattung im Zimmer eher dürftig ist, fühlte ich mich wohl und gut aufgehoben. Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt auf jeden Fall.

Sylvie et Arno sont très sympathiques et accueillants. La chambre no. 3 est fantastique. Nous avons dormi dans 3 chambres différentes. 2 étaient très bien, l'autre un peu petit et vétuste. Extrêmement bien situé avec des balades grandioses directement depuis l'hôtel. Si vous restez + que 3 jours, demandez l'accès libre aux 3 téléphériques aux alentours. Excellent restaurant et très bon petit déjeuner. On peut que recommander cet endroit.
