The location is just incredible with great views, the rooms were clean and the staff were very friendly. I booked this before the tour du Mont Blanc and it was very convenient. The diner was one of the best I've had in any hostel and the staff was super helpful.

This was the worst stay I’ve ever had at any hostel, ever. The only good thing about this place was the ability to leave at the end. I booked a private room with a private bathroom, yet I was placed in a room that had no toilet!! Not only that, the room had the smell of urine throughout it which was disgusting. It was also so hot, yet you couldn’t open the windows because bugs would come through. No privacy as people would constantly walk past the windows. I had little school kids who were looking inside constantly!! The breakfast wasn’t an actual breakfast. The shared toilets (which I shouldn’t have had to use) were absolutely disgusting. I would highly recommend that anyone who comes to chamonix to not stay in this place.

Perfect place with wonderful mountain view. Enough space for parking. Very basic breakfast. Option to buy a dinner is helpful (it is a little bit too late, in our opinion-but we understand when people are coming back from mountains rather later not earlier), Place can be noisy, especially when there is a group of teenagers, but ...it is a hostel. You can rent a towel. There is free bus every 30 min, which takes you center of Chamonix (need to ask for card at reception desk). Recommend it for few nights.

Really great hostel with perfect views of mont blanc! However was very loud at night one night despite the noise curfew due to some teens running around and screaming till early hours of the morning. Apart from this it is faultless! Definitely recommend.

Achtung! Schlafen sie hier nicht! Das Gemeinschaftsbad ist sehr klein und voller Schimmel. In den Zimmern klebt überall Kaugummi und das Frühstück ist traurig. Selbst für eine Jugendherberge sind die Standards hier quasi non-existent.

몽블랑패스 별다섯!

리셉션에서 몽블랑 패스 30유로에 살수있어요! 이것만 해도 숙소에 대한 만족도는 만점입니다:)에귀디미디 전망대 예약도 해주니 너무 고맙네요 숙소는 낡긴 했지만 잘 관리된느낌이고, 화장실 청결도 눈살 찌푸리게 한적은 없습니다
