“Excellent budget accommodation in an amazing location”

An amazing location to spend the night as a foot of snow fell outside! We were 8 out of about 18 guests in the whole place so we felt as if we were getting personal service! More comfortable than your typical high altitude hut with excellent communal bathroom facilities and a decent enough restaurant. Reasonable breakfast.
