Pros:

Comfortable room with all that we'd expected including a big fridge. Obviously the location was superb for skiing and acres ski but too noisy.
Excellent food and drinks at the restaurant. Staff first class.

Cons:

We were given a room near the road for morning traffic noise and next to the beer garden for noise from late afternoon until 10pm. Even a rainy day the music blasted out. If you came for acres ski then ideal Vos it just outside you room including tables also just outside the room door where people sat chatting over their meal and drinks.
