kitchen

The apartments are situated below the noisy bar area, second line from the slopes. So quite and ski in and ski out. Basic warm and we'll equipped kitchen area. Need a little TLC over the summer. But ski boots damage things so there are scuffs and chips. I stayed for 7 nights and on no night was there unnecessary noise after 10 pm. Getting the keys was easy 150m  around the corner is the agent. There is a supermarket and ski pass office on the way all very handy. If you want 5 star you will not get it. If you want a warm shower, quite sleep and ok beds in a great ski resort then you will get that. But a big but the apartments are advertised as 1 to 4 people don't repeat don't have more than 2 in them. We went out at 0830 and on the whole returned after 1800 so only in there for 3 or so hours before asleep to get up and ski all day. I would go back.

End of season ski trip

My 8th skiing holiday. Stayed here with two friends, it was a budget choice and we expected basic, however the apartment still fell short of being acceptable and value for money.

What was good?

- Location. Very important on skiing holidays to be as near to the slopes as possible to save lugging ski gear around. This building is a 2 minute walk to a drop in point, which was great. Also next door to the lift pass office and near to a Carrefour and launderette.

- The view. Our room faced the slopes and we had a beautiful view off our balcony (also a plus!)

What wasn't good?

- Lighting. I have to start with this despite it being difficult to appreciate without having visited yourself. All lights in communal areas are on a timer of around 30 seconds. Whilst this may be economical, it is incredibly frustrating when you're on a skiing holiday, putting on/taking off ski gear outside your room or the ski storage room when you're suddenly plunged into darkness. It's also quite dangerous - you need to be able to see where you're going when you're carrying quite heavy gear around and walking in ski boots. Very little consideration was given to this feature when it was implemented and it should be addressed immediately.

- On the subject of the ski storage, our locker was barely big enough to fit in our skis alone, let alone our boots and poles. I have never had to store any of my ski wear in my room before but was required to on this occasion. It's also situated in the basement, is damp with no drying area, down two flights of stairs and is subject to the dreaded light timer situation. We ended up just seeing our stuff in our tiny room. Not ideal really...

- Be prepared for ultimate self-catering, you are provided with next to nothing and we were required to buy the following items which you wouldn't always expect to do so: bathroom towels, toilet roll, washing up liquid, scouring pads and dish cloths, salt & pepper, coffee, tea bags, bin bags.

- The room is VERY small. Whilst relatively clean, the bathroom and kitchen are tiny, for a self catered apartment you need a bigger kitchen (you can only fit in one person at a time). There is a long radiator in the room by the balcony, this didn't work though.

- The kitchen is poorly equipped. Whilst there is a dishwasher (no tablets provided) there is no drying rack or anything to hold dishes once washed. The kettle takes around 20 minutes to boil, I know I'm being picky there but it's the longest I've ever had to wait for a brew!

- The stove is not labelled and thus is difficult to work, there is a microwave oven which is very small (don't expect to be able to oven cook anything). The pans and pots are situated in an unusual loft like area above the kitchen which is unlit and difficult to reach.

To summarise, the building could be improved to become a decent option to stay at in Val Thorens. More effort needs to be taken to ensure the comfort of the guests - such as the ridiculous light timer and the poor stove, adding bathroom towels. Either that or reduce the cost significantly - I wouldn't stay again at the current price for what we got.

Very basic. Not good value.

We left the apartment in perfect condition: nothing broken or stolen. And then they decided to take half our deposit claiming that we had stolen all the duvets. We live in England, have limited baggage for our flights and are 19. Why the hell would we steal their duvets. Either they scammed us, or after we had left the apartment locked they reopened it and just let people wander in to take stuff. This is the stupidest, most infuriating thing, and I hope this review means people book elsewhere and they lose the money they've taken from us. Try Tikal or Cheval Blanc: those places are lovely.

I am fuming, mega mega f***ing fuming

There is no wifi!?!?!?!? Nasty walls, kitchen,beds and covers. Smells wierd and bad isolation since you can hear everything! No toilet paper. Although the balcony is cute and it is near everything. Very bad overall...

YUCKY

The only good thing is location. Close to the skiing area, Carrefour, other shops and some bars.
The bad things: 
it's very cold in the room, our window was frozen from inside and couldn't be opened, the answer from the owner was that the heating is at maximum..
lack of quilts, pillows etc. the apartment was for 4 persons but there was only one quilt and two pillows..lack of cups/mugs, difficult to eat breakfast together..
electric cooker not working..boling water for pasta for 3 hours..
Unbelievably tight room!!!! You could barely move when 4 persons where inside the apartment! Almost no space in the kitchen. Pots were located under the ceiling so to get a pot/pan you climb the chair and put your head in the hole of the drop ceiling..
No space for putting clothes, I kept mine in a luggage.
Would definitely not recommend even for a budget stay.

Stresfull holidays in terrible place

Every single night of the week we stayed there, there were parties raging in the hallways from 11 pm to about 2 a.m.  We repeatedly asked other persons staying there to keep the noise down, to no avail.  If you are looking for a fraternity house atmosphere, this place is for you.  If you prefer to actually sleep at night, stay far away.  Not suitable for families for this reason.  Also, it was not located anywhere near the ski school area or to the main lifts.  It is not a ski in and ski out place -- if the snow is good, it is ski out, but you have to either trudge through the entire town or take a bus when returning after a day on the slopes.  The rent was very cheap, but that was the only thing going for this place.  Tiny rooms.  Toilet was broken.
