PREMISE
A hut is not a hotel or a restaurant. High altitude and the wilderness of the location make its management difficult and expensive, especially on the matters of food and essential goods supply. Every day we offer everyone a genuine welcome, with no frills, maybe without all the comforts… but never looking to the watch and never failing to smile. Therefore, please have the patience to understand about the place you are in: do not be overly pretentious and respect the inevitable limits of the service offered … in short, let yourself be involved in the mountain context, so as to enjoy the uniqueness of the experience of staying in an alpine hut.
