Three of us stayed in the hut for over four days. Arriving was very difficult. I had never experienced such miserable communication with the host. Before we left Germany, we didn't know where to go, where to park, how to get up to the hut, if there were dishes in the hut, where to find the natural spring and if there was wood. Arriving in Italy, the host then told us to park in Vilminore although (as we later discovered) we could park closer to it in Pianezza. It took us four hours to get to the top from Vilminore with heavy backpacks. We arrived at the hut and had a beautiful view. After arriving and unpacking, we had to look for dry wood in the area to make a fire. Even that was not easy because there was no equipment to cut the wood (a broken axe and two very old rusty saws). In the evening we made ourselves comfortable inside in lonely silence on the mountain. But don't think that you are completely alone. The next day a man came into the hut without saying a word, wrote something down in the calendar and left again. So you are not completely alone in the hut. We enjoyed the days with nice hikes, sitting around the fire, fetching water and looking for wood. Before we left, we provided water and wood for the next guests. I imagine it's not nice to arrive in the rain and not know where to find water or dry wood.
