“Pretty awful experience”

where to start? I'll just list the problems so as to save reading time. The staff were offensive and discriminated against english people- especially large groups of english lads just out to have a good time. The rooms stank; the beds were disgusting; the toilet had a layer of vomit, grime and mould growing on it; the utencils were plastic, even the pans- so they melted. At least this was enough to distract you from the stench of the 2cm layer of faecal matter that had accumulated, probably over several years. Furthermore i did not see ONE attractive female throughout my entire stay. This was the worst week of my life.

Liked — nothing
Disliked — all of it

This is for students only!!!!! We stayed here January 07 and it was a bad experience. The staff were unhelpful and offensive, the hotel is tatty and overpriced and I would never recommend it. Do they have planning/building laws in France?! We had to make the so called beds (see picture thats the bed) and clean the rooms ourselves, the rooms are cramped and uncomfortable, You would not put your bare feet on the floor. There was no bar area or any where comfortable to relax. When you did have your ski boots on the only way out of the hotel was down a flight of steel steps with the melting snow dripping on you! .. Good points are you are 5 mins walk from the lifts in the mornings the resort itself is ok , the bars are very poor and smelly but great skiing
