Blue Collar Boutique: Affordable Adventure

Nothing

I may have missed it in the details, but was not aware we had to pay to park there. I would recommend making this more a bold known feature so people can plan.

I booked a 3 night stay in an apartment in Mountain Village, Telluride through Booking.com. The listing was made by Wild Oak Telluride. The booking confirmation stated a daily parking rate of $20 but when we checked in, the resort told us we would be charged $39. When I raised this with the property he replied in an email ‘I do know at a minimum we owe you for the incorrect parking fee that was advertised’. They never paid.
I also had a dispute as it was advertised as ‘Apartment with Mountain View’. The reality was very different with the apartment facing a turning circle opposite the Resort reception with constant traffic including the shuttle bus and delivery trucks (see the photos). We were offered an alternative apartment but lost a day visiting their office and then packing up and moving. I asked for a 50% discount on the first night. They later claimed that we had received an ‘upgrade’, a ploy to avoid paying the discount. The new room matched the particulars of the room we had booked and was not an upgrade.
The owner of Wild Oak acknowledged the error in the listing in an email saying ‘I have since been in touch with Booking.com as to how my unit was advertised as it was and why such a title as "Apartment with a View" came to be attached to it. This was never something we created or added’. It was, nonetheless, Wild Oak’s responsibility to check the accuracy of the listing. He went on to say ‘I hope to get a response from them (Booking.com) within the next few days. I followed up with Booking.com who messaged me – ‘Unfortunately, we have not yet received a response from them’.
I emailed the owner again and he replied – ‘Please reach out to Booking.com and let’s have them act as the mediator in resolving this is, placing the onus on me when it was his responsibility. I followed up with Booking.com who said 'that the property (Wild Oak) still hasn't yet responded'

The pull out couch was not comfortable. The property was a bit run down. The kitchen cabinets were old and one door was off the hinge. I was expecting more for the exorbitant price we payed per night.

Unfortunately, the fires in/near the Black Canyon of the Gunnison made the air quality too poor in Telluride to do outdoor activities, so we left early.

היו מספר תקלות
הסדין לא הוחלף,
הוא היה מקומט ועם שיער
והיותר גרוע שהלך עליו חרק כלשהוא....
באמבטיה היה חסר הפקק לסתימת החור
והכיור גם היה סתום חלקית,
כל הפניות שלנו לבעל הבית היו לשווא.
מרגישים שרימו אותנו !!!

The one thing we were we confused with was the parking. You have no other choice but to valet your vehicle for $35 per night. It may have been my own mistake but I was under the impression you could use the parking app to place as much time on your vehicle spot. So even if you check out your vehicle, you will still pay $35 for the day. A hold of $450 is placed on your credit card until check out for incidentals. Once the condo is check out by staff then the hold is lifted minus the parking.

Nothing

Bed was uncomfortable….

The water in the shower could have been hotter but we didn’t report that while we stayed there. It was plenty warm but hot would be great.

Nothing was wrong with this facility. We were disappointed in the shops and restuarants in Telluride. Expected so much better. Thankful for the nice kitchen and dining area at the condo.

The scenery was absolutely breathtaking!

This was the highlight of our great trip

Dining room staff at the lodge were friendly. The food was disappointing

the water in the shower never can fully hot and you couldn’t really open the windows because you are in a street level floor with a lot of workers doing construction so it lacks privacy.

Needs curtains in the bedroom, too much light leaking in between the blinds at night.
