  : The location of this property is fabulous as it is a very short walk to the Gondola and also all the restaurants and ice rink.The beds were comfortable with good quality bed linen and the toiletries were nice.
  : The apartment is really tiny and jammed full of beds! We are a family of 3 and this came up as a suitable option, so given the limited choices we booked it. A family of 3 fits comfortably in this apartment, however it has enough bedding for 6!! There is no sofa or comfrtable seating because the space has been filled with a double bed, a huge bunk bed and a folded up spare bed. There is only a tiny table and 2 chairs to sit at even though the apartment comes with a minature kitchenette setup! Eventhough the apartment can supposedly accomodate 6 people, the 'kitchenette' only had 2 bowls and 4 plates, along with a few random items of cutlery. There is no space to prepare even a bowl of cereal because the coffee machine, hot plate and toaster are all placed on top of the fridge and the minature table is on the other side of the room. This studio apartment could be done way better and is realistically only suitable for 4 people. There are not many dining choices in town and they all close at 8pm, so even if you got a takeaway pizza, that had to be consumed on the bed!!! Not really my style of living even on holiday. This property is also marketed as having a washer/dryer, which we were relying on as we had traveled from overseas and kept clothing to a minimum, inorder to travel with skiis etc. The apartment doesn't have a washer/dryer, only a coin operated machine on the floor above. Not ideal as you don't want to spend your precious holiday time standing around waiting at a communal washing machine. So all in all I would not say this property is good value for money as I feel they are compromising comfort for trying to jam too many people in and increase profit.
