Nice Vail stay

The condo could not have a better location. This studio fits 2 people perfectly any more would be really tight. It's a bit old but conformable and clean and offers everything you need. If you have a car there is a parking lot at the condo unit for a charge. I would absolutely stay here again.

This was a wonderful place, not perfect in a few ways but overall I think it was just excellent. Imagine a walk of about one minute to the local diner, the best one in the area for breakfast, and the same to get to the gondola. Communication with the host was excellent. I highly recommend this place and look forward to staying there again.

Can’t beat the location.

Can’t beat this location in the heart of Lionshead and a short walk or bus ride to Vail Village. Stellar location. The property itself totally works. Shower, kitchen with oven, stove top, microwave, small balcony. Large bed. The property itself I think with some finishing touches could be 5 star but it’s lacking in details.

Price is ONLY reason to stay here.

The is just a large hotel room with kitchenette. The bed is too small and shakes when someone moves. Tried the sleeper sofa - what a joke.

Great location with great views but can use some TLC.

We stayed in Lift House Lodge in Vail and overall it was ok. The location is great and the views of the slopes were a plus. We appreciated the king sized bed and the mattress was comfortable. The unit could use some maintenance though. The sliding door does not lock. The toilet seat needs to be adjusted/tightened (I have seen other complaints about this on Trip Advisor for some time). The lighting is way too dark. The light over the dining table, while interesting, does not put off enough light. The shower head is pitiful; many holes are plugged and not emitting water. The shower curtain liner needs to be replaced (pink mold). The kitchen faucet leaks at the base of the handle when you turn on the water. No kitchen towels or paper towels provided.

Location great / sleeps 2 not 4

We rented this property over NYE and we were so excited about the trip and accommodations. We arrived to a old and not well cared for condo. Humidifier didn’t work, toilet seat almost fell off, towel rod hanging off wall, balcony door broken, bed sheets cheap and scratchy, pillows sucked. The worst part was the second bed because supposedly this place sleeps 4. The futon/couch was something I would find on the street in the trash. It in no way is acceptable as a bed. Uneven cushions and the crease is right at your back. You can’t sleep the other way as it’s too short. If you have a 4-6 year old you’re fine on the sofa. Towel are tiny, old and barely white. The price point is great but overall I would give this condo a C- for price/accommodations. And you have to pay $50 a day to park on property.

Location great. Steps to gondola for wedding mountaintop. Shopping and dining options excellent. Music in the plaza during the day was very nice, and location very quiet at night. Issues: the elevator was out of service for my entire stay. My room was on the 4th floor. In addition, the freezer and ice tray were crusted over and I could not use either. Sliding door to balcony stuck. Also had to pay additional for parking. I am a life-long skier and I get the idea of location to the lifts, basic accommodation with the focus to ski, crash in the evenings, and then repeat. But visiting in August for a formal wedding and finding the elevator out of service was a big issue. The staff suggested that the elevator was out for a significant amount of time and had no belief that it would be "fixed anytime soon." It made the stay very unpleasant. Rental was via VRBO and I question if the owner knew of the elevator issue. If you like the location, recommend you call first to see if the elevator works.

Everything was horrible and dirty, I called expedia to help me with this property and they didn’t help me because it was through Vrbo. Don’t book in expedia something through Vrbo because they won’t help you if there is a problem. I’m very disappointed!

The stay was ok..

This VROB was just ok… We did not have the best night sleep while there. The bed was just ok and the pillows need to be replaced. The location was nice super close to all the shopping and restaurants in Lionshead Village. That was probably our favorite part of the stay being able to walk around or people watch from the balcony. The location can be tricky to find but the ladies at the front desk could not have been nicer.

Perfect for a skiing couple - amazing location in Lionshead!

Perfect size for a couple going skiing. The location is excellent - easy walk to the Lionshead gondola with ski boots on. The apartment was clean & warm and the bed was very comfortable. 4 people would have been cramped but doable - the sofa bed is not nearly as comfortable as the regular bed. Can’t wait to book this place again!
