Baita Carosello

Clean place and nice beds.

The Japanese toilet was a nice bonus, and the apartment was well equipped. The soundproofing was poor, though. The so-called ski room is shared, really just a utility room in the building, and the way in is sloped and icy. The parking space for apartment 6 has a sign warning about falling ice. Heating is programmed and fixed, so the bedroom gets too hot while the bathroom stays too cool. You can't switch the towel warmer on manually.

Everything else was great, with nice bathrooms and facilities, and it was clean and tidy. The Carosello 3000 gondola is only a few meters' walk for skiing. The ski storage is just a small cubicle, with no boot heater. My disappointment is only with attic apartment number 3 in the attic area of Bait Carosselo. Though it's advertised for six, the attic is absolutely unsuitable for adults and really only works for 1-2 children. It's just 1.8m wide, with the height ranging from 1.0m to 1.7m, so a 180cm person can't stand there. You have to stay crouched and keep hitting your head on the rafters. There's only a bed, clothes storage, and a bathroom with toilet up there. That bed is poor, small, creaky, and fits only one person despite looking like a double, since it's just 110cm wide. Downstairs there's one double bed and one small bed in the bedroom, plus a sofa bed for two in the kitchen. I'd recommend the attic apartment for at most 3 adults sleeping downstairs and up to 3 children.

The apartment is very clean, and the furniture makes smart use of the limited space. The sofa bed is roomy and comfortable for two. Having a bedroom too would be a welcome extra for couples wanting an unforgettable vacation.
