10/10 Excellent
"Well equipped apartment, perfect for meals when you don't feel like going out. Location is great with bus stops just outside (also ski bus pick up and drop off). City centre is a short walk down or a bit of a longer back up. The on site restaurant had great range of food commiserate to standard hotel restaurants."
