Great location, hotel with nostalgic flare, overall very good stay.
Pros:

Hotel with big rooms, enough space for luggage, a lot of facilities (e.g. swimming pool, bowling, spa, different bars).
The ski school and the ski deposit in the hotel are great. The location is phenomenal!

Cons:

Hotel with a ‘70s flare, you feel going back in time but clean.
Food is a bit plain and not fancy, but it is ok!

hotel and its facilities are very dated. The mattresses were sagging and uncomfortable, and the food was only mediocre—they don't even serve free water at dinner
