Teleurstellende gastvrijheid
Pros:

Rifuges op hoogte zijn bij definitie basic. Deze refuge maakte hierop geen uitzondering en dat stoorde ons niet. Dus geen beoordelingen van comfort e.d.

Cons:

Wat wel stoorde was de bijna afwezigheid van enige vriendelijkheid en aandacht voor de bezoeker. Juist deze maken het verblijf in refuges op hoogte aangenaam. Het eten op tafel zetten zonder een woord te zeggen leek bijna op weerzin voor de gast. Een lichtpuntje was de vriendelijke dame die begreep dat een 80 plusser minder lenig is voor het ovenste stapelbed.

Déçue du logement , pourtant nous fréquentons beaucoup les refuges de montagne voire de haute montagne. Pas donné , dor
Pros:

Sur le chemin tu tour du monterosa . Personnel gentil. Repas très bon et copieux

Cons:

Le refuge juste au dessus (belle terrasse à côté des dortoirs de guide frachey, qui a les dortoirs pas du tout à côté du refuge en lui même )

Refuge incontournable sur la Via Alta 1
Pros:

Refuge confortable et propre. Le dortoir dispose de lis superposés séparés les uns des autres pour plus d'intimité.
Le dîner est bon et copieux.
Le refuge surplombe la vallée, il est très agréable de s'y poser pour un verre ou un repas, la vue est magnifique.
Eau chaude aux douches.

Cons:

Sanitaires mixtes avec aucun espace fermé pour se déshabiller avant d'entrer dans la douche.
