Guestbook
We had a wonderful time in your apartment. Great size apartment and really well located. T Lewis July 08
we had a great time, your apartment was lovely and was in a perfect location. I really was dreading carrying my snowboard up to the gondola but it was so close it was great. All the staff were really polite and helpful not to mention the pool and spa being a god send after a couple of days when we were all stiff. C Gribbin March 08
