Rooms
Le Refuge du P'tit Fischer presents a mixed bag when it comes to its rooms. On the plus side, guests consistently mention that the rooms are spacious and clean, embodying a rustic charm that many find appealing. The value for money is frequently highlighted as excellent, adding to the accommodation’s appeal. Additionally, the beds, while some find them to be average, others describe them as comfortable and thus add to a generally positive sleeping experience. Double-glazed windows provide adequate sound insulation, a plus for those looking to escape the bustling noise outside. Another noticeable advantage is the allowance of pets, appreciated by travelers with animal companions.

However, the rooms are described as outdated and in substantial need of renovation.

Heating issues in the bathrooms and the inability to open windows during hot weather without noise disturbance were also noted. Concerns about the condition of the bedding and room furnishings were frequent with mentions of wrinkled sheets and plaster falling from the ceiling. Several rooms also lack essential features such as curtains or proper shutters, impacting privacy and comfort.

While simplicity and a rustic touch might attract some, the evident need for refurbishment and greater attention to detail could affect the overall experience.
