Visitor comments
- "It was our lucky find. The charming inn was run by a young couple. It houses approx 20+ hikers in small little rooms and nooks. Very creative with their space. We stayed there in late June so there were flowers everywhere in the front patio. The food was delicious. The host helped us calling to reserve the next accommodation with no charge." - Trip Advisor
- "They really have done a great job in arranging the accommodation with what limited space they have - it was very cute inside. I thought the mattress was very comfortable and I had the best sleep here on the whole trip. The shower was small but it was hot and just enough room. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. There's a nice garden to sit out in the sun. I'd definitely stay here again." - Trip Advisor
- "I stayed here for 1 night while completing the TMB. It is an atmospheric rustic auberge, all wood and flower-filled window boxes. The staff are friendly and the food delicious. There are also great views of Mont Blanc and the surrounding glaciers which can be enjoyed from the outside seating area." - Trip Advisor
