Purgatory was great for skiing in and out location. We were disappointed in our condo.

Decent but yeah, needs a new mattress
Spent four nights here and it was just fine. Hot shower, warm room, decently stocked kitchenette. Just needs a new mattress. Not unsleepable but needs some support. Short walk to slopes and market just below. Overall a decent, little place.

Thank you for your review, Kyle! We are very sorry to hear the beds did not suit your preferences. The mattress is in good working order, but each guest has their unique preference. We hope we have the chance to host you again.

Best Location.
You cannot beat the location of this unit. The building is a little older but this unit has definitely been cared for and well looked after. Highly recommend for a ski get away!!

Good location, good for a short stay
The home was clean and the on mountain spot we desired. There were plenty of utensils and cookware. This property needs a new mattress in the murphy bed. It was sagging towards the middle, bearable for one night but by the forth night I could not wait to get home to my own bed.

Quaint
This is a very cozy ski-in, ski-out condo. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils. The view is limited to the condo next door. It is time for a new mattress.

Good location
I liked the location of the room. Couldn’t beat the price either. The room did have a weird smell upon arrival. Later found excessive mold on the inside of the bathroom door. There were also multiple dirty plates inside of the cabinets. We still had a great trip skiing and were grateful to stay pretty close to the lifts.

Little condo/ski in/ski out
The property was adorable, well appointed and had everything we needed. Was perfect location for skiing. 2 things - lots of black head hair on both sets of sheets at the unit, not sure if the cleaning person is washing the sheets with her own clothes or not, but was not appealing. Thought maybe sheets were clean, so got another set in closet, same issue with the hair. Also, 2 bottles of open bottled water in the freezer part of the small refrig from a previous guest. All in all the property was a good pick for the price, just more attention to cleanliness would be great.

Took me over an hour to check in
Apparently Vacasa never told Purgatory Resort staff that we were arriving. We were told to get our keys from Purgatory resort front desk, and it took me over an hour and 4 different people trying to contact Vacasa before finally they sent confirmation to the resort that we had booked the room. It would have taken longer but the MANAGER of the resort got fed up with the situation and personally called in to confirm our booking. The room was cute, but the amenities were lacking. We were given 2 extremely cheap quality small towels for a 3 day stay, which hindered our ability to enjoy the sauna and hot tub. There was a coffee maker but no coffee at all (why have a coffee maker then?) A fireplace and some wood but no way of starting the fire (no lighter or tinder) Overall it was a nice location and cute room, but it felt so poorly managed. I don't think I will ever book with Vacasa again after this

Grant, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that there was some confusion surrounding check-in. Regrettably, we did not receive your identity verification or the required HOA documents prior to your arrival resulting in a delay. We also apologize that the amenities in the home did not meet your expectations as we are always looking for ways to improve our guest experience. We hope to have a chance to provide you with a truly exceptional experience in the future.

Urine-stained Mattress
This is a small studio with a murphy bed. The mattress had a huge urine stain in the middle, about 2ft x 2ft. The mattress is also extremely soft and you sink down 12 inches when you lie down. Needless to say, it is time for a new mattress. Much like smoking in the room, peeing in the bed should carry a heavy penalty such as the cost of a new mattress. The solution of the property manager was to give us a couple extra mattress covers. Having 2 mil of plastic between me and the pee is not an acceptable solution. When I let management know, they only refunded my cleaning fee. I felt like I was having to explain to them why sleeping on a huge pee stain was a problem. I was mortified, they were not.

Thank you for staying with us and providing feedback, Stephanie! We apologize for the issue you encountered during your stay. Please know that the mattress is fairly new, but it has since been professionally cleaned and has a cover on it as well for extra protection. We hope to host you again for a more comfortable stay in the future.
