It’s an older home that needs some renovation. The furniture and appliances are outdated. The main bathroom had some hairs from the previous tenants or the cleaning crew themselves. Location is great close to everything. They had some great games for the kids. Overall we enjoyed the condo

Place was great in terms of space cleanliness was lacking
Very spacious, has 4 floors which is great for large groups. The complaint was it was pretty filthy, the utensils were very sticky and like they hadn’t been washed, cups were dirty everything in the kitchen looks like it’s been used and not washed, I would suggest bringing paper plates and cups. The sheets in one of the rooms were dirty and we had to change them, the floor was sticky and there were hairs everywhere. I think this is the only complaint of they uped the cleaning it would be perfect.

Hi Paola, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that is 100% ready for their stay, so we take the cleanliness of our properties seriously! We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:- I’m so sorry about the condition of the kitchenware. This time of year, rentals are often back-to-back, with guests checking out at 11 am and the space needing to be ready by 3 pm. We ask guests to wash the dishes or leave them in the dishwasher, but it sounds like the previous group may have put some dirty dishes back in the cabinets—our apologies for that! While it’s no excuse, it can make things trickier for the cleaning team to catch every detail. We’ll make sure to address this moving forward.Thanks for your valuable feedback as we continue to improve for future guests!

It was nice because it was a big enough place but if they spent a little to make it more presentable and more clean would make a world of differnce. The grill was filthy and almost unuseable.

Hi Monica, we're so glad you enjoyed the spacious townhome, but we're sorry the cleanliness fell short of expectations. After sending your comments to the homeowner, they wanted to share the following: We're making sure the grill gets a thorough cleaning, and we're also in the process of transitioning to new cleaners and property management this month. Our goal is to ensure that cleanliness always meets our high standards. Thanks for your valuable feedback as we continue to improve for future guests.
The cabin was the perfect size for our large group. The beds were comfortable. There was enough seating for us all in the dining area. The game room was fun for us all. The cabin does need a little updating. The room we were in did not have a working fan. I got hot at night. The bedding looked old and had a big red stain. The carpet looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. The stairs are a little narrow. Other then that we enjoyed our stay.

No a/c
The pictures real you in but it was not as nice as pictures and for 1,800 for 3 nights was not worth it!!!! No a/c only box fans and very hot!!! The balcony seemed very unstable in areas, definitely not safe for kids.. would not recommend
The property had bugs it had broken doors whereas we could not lock them to secure of safety as we slept. The things we were supposed to be entitled to was not available. When people's pay 1,800 for something there definitely shouldn't be roaches or ants in the dwelling. But overall as a parent we made the best of it to keep our children's celebration going.

We would have done everything we could to resolve them immediately so that you could enjoy the home.
We do all we can to make our homes the best possible stays, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests. Thank you for your feedback!
The pictures look great but not accurate. The place was not clean and the majority of drawers were broken in bedrooms, the fireplaces were broken as well as the heater, we had them come out to fix them but only one fireplace was fixed the other one in gaming area never worked. Kitchen stool was broken, microwave would not heat, wooden planks broken in living room causing fall risk. Spiders were spotted throughout the place.I would not stay here again or recommend this stay.

This place is so outdated not very clean and a kitchen that doesn’t have a skillet bigger than an eight inch skillet which isn’t that handy when feeding a large crowd. I did complain to the owner about not having large pans and he had management bring us some new ones we got that same small pans that were there. Sheets need to be replaced all bedding is so worn probably has all been there since the 90’s. Furniture is broken down on the main floor couch frame is broken on the back and if you sit there you sink almost to the floor. It states a/c but no a/c on the 4th floor and 1 box fan to share. We loved Ruidoso but buyers beware this place is so outdated and overpriced it’s a great location and management is great to help but not worth the money.

Hi Becky, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the location and found our management team responsive. We followed up with the owner, who would like to address the following:- When you reached out about skillet size, we sent someone to purchase replacements; unfortunately, it appears the new set did not include a larger pan as intended.- While the property does not have central air, there are window units in all main-level bedrooms and two in the upstairs common area. Ceiling fans are in all bedrooms, and we will ensure additional fans are available for guest use.- We recognize some furniture needs attention and have plans to address it. Over the last two years, we’ve made significant updates, including new flooring, kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, and a full interior repaint.We appreciate your comments, as they help us prioritize future improvements, and we’re glad you enjoyed your time in Ruidoso overall.

Keep looking for another rental!
I want to start with all the negative things first. The towels, blankets were dirty. There are two fireplaces and both are out of commission. The one on the main floor has a severe gas leak. The washer leaks water a bit.
Upon our arrival all the towels and blankets were not clean. The dishes were dirty and still had food on them. We came for Christmas and had to go buy pots and pans to cook a small Christmas dinner, as well as mixing bowls. The bathroom upon entry has a electrical short and smells like burning wires when the fan is turned on. The master bathroom does not have hot water. The table to eat at has some kind of coating on it that makes it very sticky. The fold out couch in the game room had bed bugs. We did notify the property manager (Ritchie) on Christmas Day and he did someone over but really nothing could be done. The couches and chair in main living area are disgusting and need to be thrown out. All the mattresses are a million years old and are very dingy. The shower curtains are rusty and the showers stink because of the old shower curtains. One of the coffee pots doesn’t work and the other works after messing with it a few times. Overall, this house does not have hardly any accommodations.
For the positive, it suited our needs for 16 people easily. The kids enjoyed the gameroom area quite a lot. It has a beautiful view and we saw alot of wildlife there.
I will definitely not be staying here again.

Hi Virginia, we're glad you enjoyed certain aspects of this home, but sorry your stay fell short in other areas.
- The homeowner let us know that they were notified of most of your concerns while you were in residence and did their best to address them quickly.
- Maintenance was sent out immediately to inspect the sleeper sofa, but they could not find any evidence of bed bugs or insects.
- After the flue was opened in the fireplace, no gas smell was reported, so, likely, the flue was not opened before starting it.
- We apologize that the downstairs fireplace was not working; the homeowner will have someone inspect that soon.
- Unfortunately, the bathroom fan burnt out while you were in residence, and there was no way to have it fixed on Christmas.
- The owner was very sorry to hear about your concerns regarding dirty towels and dishes. The home is always professionally cleaned before each stay, and they sent their housekeeper over to address any areas that may have been overlooked.
We appreciate your helpful feedback. The owner assured us that they are addressing all comments and will continue to work hard to provide a clean and comfortable home for all guests.

This is a spacious and clean property. Multiple levels so plenty of space/beds/bathrooms/seating and separation for a large group. Our issue was with communication with the owners. We had difficulty with the lock when arriving. I called the number provided, reached voicemail, and never received a call back. On the second night, we had an issue with the basement bathroom and sewage leaking in the wall. Again, I called and only received voicemail and no call back. I sent an email which they responded to with a request for my phone number to send maintenance out. We were leaving in the AM so I said they can handle it once we were gone, but I never received any further communication from them.
Overall a nice place to stay with a larger group. We had 13 adults / Teens and 3 smaller children. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms. Water temperature and pressure was surprisingly great. We all showered and still had plenty of hot water.
The unit is old and shows ALOT of wear and tear. The carpets need to be replaced for sure, but it’s somewhat understandable with the size of the unit. There was a bad ant problem in the kitchen, but we sprayed ant killer before we left for the day and left the windows open and it seemed to help.
Overall I’d recommend the unit and really don’t have any complaints, just observations for the review. The location is great. 1/2 mile to the downtown shopping area.
I’d give it 4/5 stars overall.

Needs improvement
overall experience was ok. Place needs to upgrade because carpet was 1980s old and so are many of the appliances. Beds also need to have upgraded mattress becausr they too were old and stained with blood, other human bodily fluids and God knows what. Not the cleaning crews fault but more from management and ownership.
Deck was nice, pool table and Foosball were fun. Be prepared to walk up and down the stairs a lot.

Hi Juan, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that is 100% ready for their stay, so we take the cleanliness of our properties seriously. We followed up with the homeowner, who wanted to share the following:
- The carpet is only six years old and has been well-maintained.
- We replaced the microwave last year and will be replacing the stove next week.
- We check the mattresses regularly and replace them as needed. Each bed has a foam topper and mattress pad as well, so we can assure you they are clean.
Thanks for your feedback, and we hope you had a great time in Ruidoso!
