Customer Reviews Chamonix Mont-Blanc
| 14 Feb 2014 Ben, England & Wales | 73% | |
| This hostel offers exceptional value for money - especially now the lift pass is included. Evening meals are extra but are very good value too. All the staff and residents we met were friendly and chatty. Rooms are basic but what do you expect?! Beds are comfortable though. Evening entertainment is limited to a bar and a couple of games machines and a tv, but if like me you're struggling to stay awake after 10pm then theres nothing to worry about. | ||
