Parking was a problem. Fridge was very loud. We were skiing or sleeping most of the time so were just looking for a place to crash. Very responsive to messages but parking was a problem.
A lot of the previous reviews for this property were either very positive or very negative, I was nervous.
I wish it stated somewhere in the listing about the parking situation. No street parking, no full sized trucks allowed, and very little space to park on driveway since thereâs 2 other rentals in the same house. They expect you to park all the way over to the left but thereâs a couple bushes and frozen down snow from poor snow removal that made it difficult to park in the spot we had to park in. I wish there was a picture of the driveway on the listing because it wouldâve cleared up a lot of confusion.
Overall, this place wasnât bad. It was definitely nothing extravagant but if you plan on being out most of your days in Vail, this is just the perfect place to rest your head at night.
Could hear the neighbors above (mostly just footsteps) but it didnât bother me. The setup of the space is kinda weird and the couch felt very cheap (different than pictured. Felt like a cheap ikea couch). We couldnât get the DVD player to work, but thereâs cable. There is a free public bus that runs very close to this rental which was super convenient!! We saved so much money on parking due to the bus.
Overall, we had a good experience.
We enjoyed our stay. We didnât realize that this was a basement unit, but that wasnât a problem. There is a room with a decent kitchen, an enormous bathroom, and the main living/bed room. The place was comfortable and everything worked.
The layout of the place is a little weird, although there is a ton of space (the bathroom is huge did I mention) it is not very functional, and is probably optimal for a single couple.
The place was very clean overall, including the hot tub in the common area. The grill in the common area also works. We appreciated having the laundry in the garage
Access to the bus stop is an easy short walk- although navigating the busses takes some time, and itâs important to plan ahead and choose the right bus.
Parking at the place was easy for us, but if all three units have cars I can see it being very tight. The driveway is steep.
The sofa bed is not a quality mattress in any sense and is tiny. Itâs not the one that is shown in the photos. Also, the amount of noise we heard constantly from the unit above ours was comically ridiculous. Iâve never in my life heard that much noise in a bottom unit - every single step and movement at all times of day and night. It sounded as if people were wrestling or playing soccer constantly. Other than these two things, it was a nice stay.
This is our first time doing VRBO and was really excited about trying something new. We got there and had a hard time figuring out the door. Then we get inside and it smelt horrible. It was so stinky and stuffy. It was clean at first sight, the bed is made and the floors are clean. But as I am going potty I can see stuff on the walls and sure enough it's black mold. It's also on the other side of the bathroom sink and on the floors coming up through the tile on the floors. We stay Thursday-Sunday morning. When we got home and unpacked our clothes smelt just like the place we left. My husband took his c-pap and he couldn't even use it when we got home because he was smelling the mold in his c-pap machine. I have never in my life stayed in a place that smelt so horrible. And the dishes were dirty, so I had to wash the dishes we used before we could use them. And they didn't leave us any toilet paper so we had to go out and buy more. They didn't have any wash clothes to wash my face with so I had to use a hand towel. I really want to use VRBO again next month as I am planning on going to Florida.
We will for sure be back. Great place, Owner was very proactive. Me and my wife had a great time and would recommend the place with 5 stars across the board.
My concerns were not addressed. Rodent dirt in house l not a working dryer. Clean except for Rodent dirt. Lots of things need TLC. Stains and holes on bedding. Actually it's like a cute cabin in the woods but there were more issues than this.
Private, unique, affordable space in Vail. Nothing fancy, but clean and comfy. Noise upstairs not bad at all. Parking for that unit is super tight, definitely better for smaller cars. Communication/check in/requests for the unit were awesome. Bring slippers or indoor âshoesâ if you donât like going barefoot
1st we made several attempts to make a early checkin and late checkout. We were refused by the property management, and told they needed to clean the unit prior. This would have been fine if the unit was actually clean. This unit was not even spot cleaned prior to our visit. Dirty linens, a mouse, spider webs in the bathroom and kitchen common area(by the sinks in both locations). Black mold growing under the sink kitchen , in the shower, and who knows where else. Underneath the pull-out couch it doesnât look like itâs been clean in a very very long time(dirty tissue). The bed sheets had stains and holes and smelled. The tv didnât work, it needed to be hooked up. 5 remotes and 2 worked. The toilet didnât flush and needed to be fixed prior to using it. This is gross to ask any client to do. The parking situation was a joke.
The property inside was clean. Bed was soft and cozy. Kitchen stocked with dishes but not ground coffee for coffee maker. It was really cool on a super hot day because itâs a basement condo with no natural light coming in. Hot tub was great. For the price per night it was a great value for 3 people.
This property was very small (photos of course never tell the story). We were not supplied all of the needed linens to convert the sofa and air mattress into beds; property manager never responded during our stay. Air mattress leaked badly. Floor was dirty; dishes in cabinet not clean. TV/Cable instructions were wrong and took us an hour to figure out. In general, way over-priced and under-equipped, leading to a rough 3 nights.
