Résidence Lagrange Vacances Prat de Lis

The staff were friendly and attentive, and the accommodation was clean, though everything feels old. The residence has direct access to the slopes, and the apartments in Building 2, numbers 23 or 24, are worth noting. Getting around the apartments isn't convenient, and you'll need strong legs. The spa is tiny, with room for about four people, so it really needs a booking schedule. What worried us most was seeing construction support poles throughout the building, in every room and even in the parking lot.

The location is really convenient for the resort, with ski-in/ski-out access, and the staff are very pleasant. The apartment itself is average, though still decent value for the money. Many services cost extra. You can see signs the buildings are settling: wooden supports in the apartments and basement, loose floor tiles, and cracks in the walls and tiles. If you're in the third building, be ready for a lot of stairs.

The location in the resort is lovely, but we won't stay at this residence again. We had a baby and were put in Building 3, which has no elevator and an awful lot of stairs. There are supports in the apartments and garage, and broken tiles too, which feels like poor maintenance. Everything costs extra. The spa and jacuzzi are free to use, but you have to book at the start of the week or there won't be a slot. The manager came across as arrogant and as though he knew everything. We'll come back to the resort, just not here.

It's a quiet spot with ski-in/ski-out access, though a little away from the resort center and with no shuttle information provided. The apartments are very nice, but reaching Buildings 2 and 3 is awkward, especially when hauling luggage up a slippery, snowy metal staircase. There's only one elevator, and it serves Building 1.
