Location is Everything, but... That Kitchen!!!
The location of this condo was perfect for my family of four. Long days of skiing and a very efficient shuttle to get us there and back with ease.
As for the condo, the rooms were warm and decorated with the typical ski chalet decor. The beds were comfortable and warm.
I don't read reviews to see what someone liked, I read them to see the red flags or dislikes they had, and come up with my own evaluation. So, here ya go with that!
The Cons-
We stay in a house/condo because we like to cook and live in the house when we are visiting. The 1972 kitchen needs updating! Although the condo had some pots and pans they were well worn out and needed replacing. Don't count on cutting anything with the knives in the block, they are so dull a master sharpener may not even get a good edge back. There were a few glass baking dishes but no baking sheet.The drawers were full of only somewhat usable gadgetry. I reached out and asked about a pancake griddle, I never heard back, There was no ability to make waffles or pancakes.
Only 2 very small cutting boards, WHO only has only small cutting boards, could barely cut onions without making a huge mess!
The leather couches in the living room were very dated and the cushion was so clapped out, might have been better off sitting on the floor.
-Winter Heating, We could never get a balance of heat for the bedrooms and living spaces, even when we turned down the heater at night, the lower bedrooms were roasting and the living room cold.
There were no extra garbage bags, no extra rolls of toilet paper,
The Pros-
The coffee maker worked great, with plenty of filters in the cupboard. Somewhat new refrigerator, no Ice maker but plenty of trays.
Fresh towels and warm showers were great!
The complex has folks that clear the sidewalks of snow after storms. Parking is super easy. Like most vacation rentals you have to bring in all your food and condiments, spices and oils, but there are many useful things in the cabinets that the cleaners either leave or owners have on hand. We added some more goodies!
There is a cable TV offering but reading in front of the fire while listening to music was way better than watching a screentime.
Even though I have many negatives, I'll probably book this place again and just deal with it or bring my own stuff to make cooking better.
Cheers!
