Gschnitzerhof

There’s loads of room here, with four double bedrooms for up to eight people, plus a big kitchen and a bathroom with a corner tub. Everything was clean and looked after, and the kitchen had what we needed. The main living area feels a little bare for its size, though, and the lighting is quite dim. I missed having a reading lamp in the evening, and a hairdryer in the bathroom would’ve been handy. Just a few small things; it’s otherwise a lovely apartment in a beautiful spot.

The owners were so attentive and kind, and even gave us free transport tickets for getting around the valley and for visiting Innsbruck by bus and train. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and new. It’s in a gorgeous valley, about an hour from Innsbruck. I’d definitely recommend staying here.

It’s a very quiet place, well away from tourist spots and about an hour from them, so it suits anyone looking to get away from the city. The owner was really friendly, and the place was clean, with clean dishes, a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, and the kitchen basics. You’ll need a car for roughly 20 minutes to reach services, though, and there’s hardly anyone on the street. It gets very dark after sunset. We had cold, rainy, cloudy weather in August, too. One issue in the bathrooms: water pools because there’s no drainage.

We had a wonderful time, with lots of hiking trails close by and an absolutely stunning view. The people were incredibly kind, too, and even helped us fix our car and shared useful tips.
