Manzano Apartments Reviews

What you expect but shame about lack of space

Reviewed 24 Jun 2014

The way Pas de la Casa is built is that you have a zig zag road that goes up from village (it’s a bit steep I must admit). There are various apartments and shops on the way up the road and our apartment was after 4 bends of the zig zag at the top of the hill. It’s ok if you’re a good skier as you can just go the 50-100 yards down to the first corner and ski out but beginners would have to walk back to the village. You have to walk a bit to get to the shops but it’s only about 2 bends away, so you don’t have to go all the way down.
The apartments themselves were fine, a bit cosy for five people but that seems to be the way of it nowadays – ours was supposed to sleep six but you’d be pushed for living space with six people as it’s quite cramped. The sleeping arrangements were a room with a double and two singles and then two pull outs in the lounge.
We did a little bit of both cooking and eating out. The cooking facilities were OK, not brilliant but again you expect that nowadays. They had all the pots and pans you wanted but there was only one ring, maybe two, so it was quite minimal and you had to be creative to say the least!
