Pros:

Het was een prima hotel. De inrichting was niet mijn smaak, maar gaf wel een echte ski vibe (ook in de zomer). Keuken was van alle gemakken voorzien. Verder ruime kamer, met goede TV en lekkere bank en stoelen.

Cons:

Het leek allemaal wat meer gedateerd. Verder ook een klein probleem met een raam, maar dit is binnen een dag door de receptie weer opgelost.

The size was a great surprise instead of a typical bed and bathroom hotel room.
Pros:

Great place to stay with great value. So easy to hop on the shuttle right at the property for a 10 minute ride for several stops inside vail village/ lions head walkway. Pool is heated and the hot tub and sauna are very relaxing. Would recommend absolutely!

Cons:

No breakfast. But the condos have a full kitchen with plates, pots and pans for a home cooked breakfast.

Pros:

room size

Cons:

from outside looks nice, when you walk in you realize that is quite old, there was a bad smell come up from the lower floors, fortunately didn't enter the room, room was large, but old and dirty (lot of stains) carpet on the floor, bathroom very small compared to the room size, the kitchen cabinets door didn't close, the bed is a pull-down one. outdoor parking 20$ per day, everything comes for a price in Vail. defintely not worth the price, ok for a couple of nights

Staff are exceedingly kind and helpful. The rooms are comfy and clean.
Pros:

The staff are amazing. Zero hassle, 100% compassion and customer service. We had the worst travel day where everything went sideways, and accidentally booked our room for the wrong night. Which meant we missed the no late booking policy. They had every reason to turn us away. Instead, they saw 2 people in need of kindness and helped get us settled for the night. They corrected everything in the system the next morning, no extra fees or penalties. We will absolutely be going back. Not only are they good people, the room was so comfortable and I liked having a kitchen.

Cons:

It’s a little hard to find, especially in the dark.

Would most likely stay there again due to overall value.
Pros:

Very clean. Good value

Cons:

No coffee available in room ( or anywhere). I arrived at 10:00 and left at 7:30 am. Never saw any staff. Parking was an issue as I’m handicapped due to severe back injuries. Access to building from parking area was a problem.
