  : One hiccup we found during our stay was the hot water. The host didn't turn on the switch for us so we ended up taking an extremely cold shower. The rest of the nights were fine after we learnt how to turn on the hot water :)

  : The chalet is cozy and well equipped. It was matching very well with its description and provided pictures. The location proved being better than what it looked a priori. There are many walking paths around and even a way to go to Chamonix by walking with a bus stop close by.
  : Finding a place to park a second car was a little bit of a challenge.

  : Weve loved our stay in this carefully arranged and cosy family chalet at the entry point of Argentire village. It is situated close to several hiking routes and skiing facilities, 7 minutes walk up to Argentires historic village centre with train station, supermarket, restaurants, farmacy etc. It is on the lower bit of the village, next to Hotel du Randonneur, just before a left turn to the roundabout leading to Chamonix.The owners really thought through what people would need to have a comfy and cosy stay and also thought about practicalities for active families (including tour guides). The chalet has a lovely garden with nice garden furniture and some view on the Mont Blanc. Hikers will find easy access to several hiking routes, one easy route to Chamonix almost right behind the chalet (Petit Balcon). The kitchen is indeed tiny, but we had all we needed for a family with three teenagers - including oven and microwave. It might be too tiny for groups, but I would say that the chalet is designed for active families or couples who want a cosy and comfy stay and enjoy nature anyway. The cosy eating corner looks out on the Argentire glacier and the Lognan pistes, which are closeby. This chalet is a split-level construction. When you come out of the garage (basement), turn to the left into an entryway for two chalets, and take the right one. You will find an open living room with kitchen and eating corner, a 3 person bedroom, a bathroom, an extra toilet, a cabinet with microwave, vacuum cleaner etc. and a built-in cupboard for skis, shoes, hiking sticks etc. Downstairs in the souterrain you will find 2 lovely and large bedrooms and a modern bathroom with washing machine. The windows in the bedrooms can be easily opened.
  : The kitchen is somewhat tiny, but with some logistical adjustments we could easily work around it.The road from and to Switzerland can be somewhat busy. But the windows are well-isolated and theres a distance of approx. 200 m to this road, so you wont hear it from the inside.
