Amazing!
I am very picky about where we stay and I rarely give 5 stars but this condo was perfect. Here is why: Location: walking distance to restaurants and shopping. There’s a park nearby for the kids and a few great hikes in the area as well. You also have your own parking spot Cleanliness: this condo was so clean! The sheets smelled fresh and everything was pristine. Bed was also very comfortable Communication: check-in and out was a breeze and communication was excellent with the host. The wind knocked out the WiFi and they were very quick to come out and repair.I highly recommend and we would absolutely stay here again!
Very nice renovation, clean, perfect location… all met our expectations.

The Palace Loft is one of the best rentals we have stayed in and we have been visiting Salida for 20 years. It is very clean and comfortable. The location is unmatched if an in town experience. The attention to detail and thoughtful amenities were amazing. We will definitely rent the loft in the future.

The experience was wonderful. Perfect spot for the 2 of us celebrating our anniversary. We could walk everywhere, the place was peaceful and it was nice to have a designated parking spot. The owners did a fantastic job with the renovations. The place looks great inside! A peaceful oasis was exactly what we were looking for, and got with this one. Thank you!
