This residence is at a great location with beautiful views. Upstairs is good for folks under 5’ 6” and lacks ventilation.

Dear Thorne , Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the great location and beautiful views. We appreciate your feedback. Your insights are valuable to us. We hope to welcome you back in the future! Best regards, Happy.Rentals Team
Premium location in Argentière.
Walking distance to Lognan-Les Grands Montets (best spot for skiing in Chamonix) and to shops.
Shuttle stop at property entrance, so you can easily access other ski stations in the valley.
A very functional apartment with acceptable view and with 2 balconies.
Be aware that the bedrooms and the bathroom have a very low ceiling so that you cannot fully stand straight in those rooms if you are over 1,75 m high. It should be fairly mentioned in the rental description !
Also be cautious with light switches that also control the electric heaters !
Happy Rentals team has been very responsive to solve a couple of issues (damaged coffee machine replaced the next day of arrival and a portable wifi box provided to replace the deficient installed wifi box),
A bottle of wine offered as a present of welcome.
All in all, this made our journey (my son and myself) very pleasant !

Tiny but cosy
First of all we had difficulties getting in the flat. It felt like the opposite of an exit game we had to figure out where and with which code we had to get the keys, passing x-doors and taking the right lift led us finally to the right apartment.
The apartment appeared a lot smaller than it had been pictured but nevertheless still as cosy as in the pictures. Just be aware if you are taller than 1,70 you can't walk straight on the 2nd floor. Not just the bathroom ceiling is low the whole second floor is not made to stand tall or spend more time than necessary.
The wifi is not working at all but I kept texting and the service has to be praised. They even answered on a sunday sending me the wifi details which were not working either. They provided us with a portable wifi devise for the days and this was just working fine.
Still to be said the apartment is very cosy, with a well equipped kitchen and located in one of the most beautiful areas in the alps. In Argentiere you'll find everything you need, even off-season.
Nous avons passé une semaine à Argentière afin que notre fille puisse suivre ses courtes skis.
Le logement était assez grand pour nous 3, mais les plafonds de l’étage sont trop bas. Je me suis cogné à plusieurs reprises la tête.
Il manque la possibilité d’accrocher simplement les vestes au rez-de-chaussée, pas de lumière dans le coin cuisine si ce n’est la lumière de la hotte,

Dans l ensemble on a passé une super semaine de ski. Temps magnifique neige de printemps. Mais là où on est très déçu c est l appartement. Sur le site il note wifi et bingo on arrive y a pas sois disant un problème et pour prévenir personne juste un mot collé a côté de la porte. Ensuite la salle de bain trop basé mon marie qui fait 1m85 devait rester baissé et pour finir pas de place de parking. Nous trouvons que c est un manque de respect de la part des propriétaires et peut-être de l agence aussi si il était au courant… heureusement qu il a fait beau car imagine des ados sans connexion…
