Vacancéole - Résidence l'Edelweiss

Pleasantly surprised, much better than expected Having read the trip advisor reviews I was a little apprehensive before I arrived. What I found was a basic but very adequate apartment. The kitchen area and appliances were new and included a dish washer. The room hadn't been professionally cleaned between clients but was acceptably presented. The beds were on the hard side but OK. The walls are thin. The corridors need cleaning more often. The staff were friendly and check-in was easy. Note, there is an office in town at which you check in and collect keys, not from the reception area in the L'Edelweiss which is unmanned. There is no left luggage facility, but the Sport Brun ski shop offers this facility (6€/bag). The accomodation does not include bed linen or towels, so I bought my own, I can't comment on the quality of the ones offered for rent. There were clean pillows and extra blankets supplied in the room. I did not know how to switch on the heaters in the room and it was a "cool" on the first night. It transpires that there is a hidden switch behind the heater that you need to switch on as well as the more obvious on/off button on the top. The bath was missing a plug and the front door handle was very loose. I reported these minor issues the next day, and they were sorted almost immediately. The location of the building is great and convenient for the High Street and the Belle Etoille lift. The accomodation basic and quite scruffy in places, but very good value especially considering the low price I paid.

The building is quite scruffy/grimey in places, but for the low rental price I thought it was within bounds and good value

cet établissement ne vaut pas le prix demandé surtout pour se retrouver avec un appartement 8 personnes à un quasi sous sol avec vu sur un mur la station est sympa mais pas cette résidence qui commence sûrement à plus que dater

Très déçue... Personnel limite agréable à l'arrivée. Exige un appartement nickel à notre départ mais lorsqu'on arrive on constate un appartement moyennement propre (table sale - casserroledégueulasse)... Pas de prise sur le plan de travail : obligée de mettre le grille pain sur une chaise la cafetière parterre et la bouilloire sur le meuble télé. On voulait demander une rallonge mais l'accueil est censé fermée à 18h mais à 17h40 personne ne nous répond. Les locaux en commun sont sales...

Appartement propre, spacieux, bien équipé et idéalement placé. Départ du télésiège Belle Étoile à environ 100m. Agréable séjour malgré les nuisances sonores générées par les groupes de jeunes qui s'entassent par dizaine dans les appartements voisins.

It was very cheap and that needs to be considered. Building was not clean (very tired and dirty) apartment was ok and did what we needed. Check inn was a faf and 10 minutes walk from hotel. Also hotel was not contactable via phone - I tried 5 plus times. If you go expecting a cheap hostel you will not be disappointed. It is safe and well located.
