The property is lovely. I felt relaxed and well rested during my stay. The location is outstanding. It does get a bit loud, even with the double windows, by the location can’t be beat. The rooms are ample sized and the bathrooms have good fixtures. It looks rustic, but it functions modern. Of note, the water pressure is fantastic and the beds are comfortable. It is a smart house which can take a bit of getting used to, and you have no control over the temperature. The rooms got quite hot at night. The Wi-Fi was adequate, but not great. Lastly, the management company was great to deal with.
Four things that were a less than ideal. First, the main bedroom is right in front of a bar, which stays active until well after 12am. Second, the pillows are beaten up ikea garbage. Really. I mean horrible. I wish I had brought a pillow, it was that bad. Third, getting the keys and returning the keys was a hassle. To the point where I would not stay there again. It is a 15 minute walk from the property. If you are walking, make sure you understand this. We took a taxi from Geneva but left on the bus. The bus station is very close to the business office, but around 1.5k from the location. Last, the stairs up to the front door are steep, narrow, and get wet/icy. It was not fun carrying luggage up to the door and skis would be a bigger hassle.

First winter ski trip in Chamonix
The property is in very good condition and very clean. It looks newly remodeled with a combination of modern and rustic. Good size for 6 adults. Great location for town center and bus stops to skiing.
The house is wired as a smart house and has a few minor issues. Lights going up the stairs are on a motion detector so they turn on when you start up or down the stairs, but turn off when you get half way so you are in the dark the rest of the way. Lights in all the rooms were difficult to turn on and off due to complicated switches. There were instruction signs next to every switch but in the dark you cannot read the signs.
Biggest complaint was the heating system. The thermostat was locked so we could not change the temperature. The bedrooms were too hot so very difficult to sleep and we had to open windows in the winter to be able to sleep. I sent multiple emails to the property management company (Happy Rentals) about the problem, and they did not respond. They were not open before we left for skiing or after we returned from skiing, so we were unable to call. The check in process was difficult because you had to go try to find the property management office in a different area of the city at night when you arrived to get the keys out of a safe.
I would highly recommend this property if it was with a different property management company.
