Great Stay for Couple
We loved the location and views. Check in was very easy. All the communication before our stay that was needed, was sent to us in a timely manner. I see it is on the listing now but wasn't when we booked, but the divider by the where the bed is at was a big plus. Very close to lifts 4 and 1. Wonderful to be able to have our vehicle parked in parking garage. since no one was coming in right after us, we easily were able to extend out stay by a day since they had just had big snow. It also was great to have washer an dryer in unit. Simply decorated but very comfortable. Definitely would stay here again!

Really enjoyed our stay.
Great property. The location was perfect. Not exactly ski in/ski out, but close - ski in, but a short walk to ski out. There were a few things that weren't perfect, but I'd be nitpicking because the location was so good and the unit had pretty much everything we needed. If there was one issue that disappointed, it was the fire wood provided would not burn and I definitely know how to start a fire.

Awesome Views, Cozy space
Gorgeous views and cozy space for my husband and I. The hosts were attentive and great communicators!! Very easy to work with:) Overall very clean except the carpet had many stains and burn holes from fireplace we are assuming. We suggested a pillow top or foam pad for bed.

Thank you for leaving feedback! We're so glad you had a great stay :) We will definitely have a look at the carpet and let the homeowners know of the condition but we do have every property deep cleaned in the off-season which should help remedy any stains from use. It was such a pleasure to host you! We hope you come stay with us again soon.

This property is in a great location but could use some updates. It is roomy enough for our family. Our 8 and 11 year old used the pull out but there there no linens. The management company did bring us some the next day.

Great place as long as you don’t need to contact management
Perfect for a couple, could be tight with two... but kitchen was well stocked and the seating area was nice. Ski/board in/out. Perfect view of base. Unfortunately our stay started off rocky... the previous folks broke the oven handle off and the coffee pot was broken. Attempted to work with management but they spent a day and a half arguing that this was so minor and we really should be thankful for being allowed to deal with these inconveniences...

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay here for a ski trip! I'm sorry that the previous guests had broken those items before you arrival. If you call and let us know then we have staff on hand to bring up replacements for items, so I'm not sure why anyone would have argued with you about the coffee pot. We also had our maintenance technician come out and repair the oven handle so thank you for bringing that to our attention. Again, I'm sorry if you had a bad experience with someone on our team about these items because that's definitely not our normal standards. We have a dedicated team just for these reasons! We're glad you had an enjoyable stay and we do hope you come stay with us again in the future!

Best location
I have stayed in this location twice and I can’t say enough with how fantastic the location is. So easy to walk right into the ski hill or pop home for lunch. The kitchen was well stocked and the condo was clean. Management group were responsive to my calls immediately. There were a few items that needed fixed but that didn’t interfere with the quality of my stay. Having access to the Durango Fitness Center was also an awesome plus. Kids loved the pool!

Great Location
The location was great and clean but needs some updating. The kitchen doesn't have much counter space. The fridge is a very small fridge. The couch pull out bed was not comfortable but the kids didn't really mind that much. The place was very convenient, right outside lift 4 and short walk to the main express lift. We had a great time! The views were amazing from the 4th floor overlooking the mountain.
Response from VrboOwner on Mar 18, 2021
We're so glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for leaving feedback. This property is a studio unit so it is to be expected that the kitchen and fridge are smaller. We also provide photos so that guests understand the layout prior to booking. We're glad you had a good stay and enjoyed the easy convenient lift access from this spot! It was a pleasure to host you and we hope you come stay again soon :)

Awesome location!
The property was great. So close to the lifts and very easy access to everything at Purgatory Village! Totally ski-in/ski-out once you are down the elevator! The actual bed is a full not a queen but the pull out couch looks like a queen. Upon arrival we couldn't find the parking permit (it was missing) and the internet code given was incorrect. We spent about 45 mins trying to fix both of those issues, but when we called the property manager, Erica was super responsive and we got it all figured out. Don't waste time and frustration...call them immediately! All in all, awesome place for the price and great access to the mountain!

Very convenient location
Mostly great - wondrous location to get to the Purgatory Express lift. Condo is pretty good, although a couple of niggles: as others have said, no dishwasher, but then again, they didn't say they had one so it's not a deal breaker. The other niggle is that the carpet is pretty old and tired with a few burn marks on it: it could do with updating. Otherwise, great.

Thank you for leaving a review! We appreciate your feedback. We're happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! As you mention, we don't advertise there being a dishwasher since there isn't one. We do appreciate the comments about the carpet and will address as needed! We have them professionally cleaned in the off-seasons which should remedy the problem but we will certainly replace them if they continue to look worn out. Thank you for bringing that to our attention! It was such a pleasure to host you and your group for a ski vacation. We hope you come stay with us again soon!

Perfect for a couple
This condo is just the right size for 2 people. It has a nice little balcony with a view of the Twilight lift, which is only a few steps from the building. All the towels were new. I love the separated foyer for snow gear. Met the owner and she was very nice. I would definitely stay here again.

The condo is in a nice location for access to hiking and scenic drives
The condo is an older unit and needs some updates. The supplies were nicely stocked. There is no dishwasher. The dining table needs some type of lighting as we had to pull a table lamp over to see to dine. It was inadequate. The bathroom area needs a nite lite as it is very enclosed and doesn't receive any prepherial light at night. It was wonderfully quiet both day and night. We were there in the fall so it might be different during ski season.

This property is perfect for a quick get away. We were skiing for 5 days early March. Just my husband and I, really close to the Plaza and lifts. It's not the fanciest place but it gets the job done! The location and having a parking space are great. We needed a couple of things when we got there and management was courteous and quick to respond - very nice experience!!

Purgatory trip
We really enjoyed our time in Durango. We arrived much later then expected and had a bit of difficulty getting into place ( possibly just tired from traveling and the day) but no further difficulty after realizing when using the electronic lock- you bypass the door handle and instead turn the key knob on top it worked with no problems. No A/c in this unit and sleeping was warm, I think some ceiling fans or an oscillating fan would be very beneficial! Other than that, everything needed was provided and communication with property manager was quick and efficient. Would recommend or visit again.

Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you were able to get in when realizing you turn the electronic lock knob. We try to be very specific about instructions on entering as we know guests often arrive late and tired :) No properties up north have air conditioning as it is plenty cool to open windows at night and close them during the day to keep the cool mountain air inside. If it's unusually warm we are happy to provide tower fans and most condos already have them in the closets. It was a pleasure to host you and we look forward to hosting you again soon for your next visit!
