Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us Emily! We will take your feedback into consideration. We only supply one bath towel for each person for the occupancy amount at each property as we try to have guests wash their own towels and reuse them as we are an environment friendly company! We hope to see you back again in the near future!
Nice drive in from ABQ airport. Resort is nice, and quite. Very close to Purgatory ski resort. Also close for visiting Silverton and Ouray and Million Dollar highway. By fear some of the best views anywhere in the world. Only challenge is groceries and restaurant options in the area. Will do it again. Price and value are very good as well. Thanks

Reviewer Comments:
We enjoyed our stay and the unit was as advertised. I would rent again.The message I would like to leave the owner to improve my rating: 1) the main TV is too small for the living room. A relatively inexpensive improvement would be to size it up to modern standards. 2) And perhaps broom the cobwebs on the back porch. Nonetheless, a great spot with just a spot of traffic noise during daytime hours.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We appreciate your feedback and will certainly take your TV suggestion into consideration and let our owner know that this could help improve the property and its desirability. We can take care of the cobwebs easily! Thank you for pointing that out. It was such a pleasure to host you and we hope you come stay with us again soon!
Property was ok but overpriced for what you get. Appliances are very old and don't work well. No exhaust in the kitchen, no fans on the main level...so its not fun when you cook in the tiny kitchen. Dirty rug in the kitchen that needs to be replaced. There was a cleaning towel left on the couch too. Overall it was ok but we have stayed in much better units at Tamarron for about the same cost.

Thank you for leaving a review! Your feedback is important to us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay overall. We have replaced the kitchen rug - we appreciate you bringing that to our attention! The appliances are all relatively new stainless steel appliances and work just fine - we went in and tested them... There are no vent fans at Tamarron for stoves as they can't vent them out the side of the buildings due to HOA rules. Thank you for staying with us!
We came for the week to ski at Purgatory. The location was great! The space and size was perfect for our family of 5. The kids loved the upstairs loft area. Having a washer and dryer on site was great!
The communication with the management was prompt and very kind.
A few days before the furnace needed replacing so they did their best to find us a new location. Thankfully the furnace was replaced just days before we got there. However, the maintenance guys tracked in muddy footprints. We also didn't have many towels. Once the cleaning lady came, she was wonderful by the way, she set us up with more towels, proper dishwasher tabs, swept and mopped for us and gave us more trash bags. She was fantastic! She did say she was just taking over this unit from the previous cleaners.
Overall it was a great place and had everything we needed!

Reviewer Comments:
Probably one of the worst experiences at a VRBO in a while. The shower upstairs would not drain. We had to take a shower with dirty water in the shower. The sink would not drain and the toliet would require two flushes to flush. The upstairs TV would not work. All the beds were extremely hard and uncomfortable. the bathroom downstairs never had hot water. The carpet in the living room had major black dirty stains. We called and reported the issues and nobody ever came or even called to check on us. Very disappointing.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review regarding your recent stay in our condo. We were shocked to read your review as the instances you described are so contrary to how we conduct our business and the experience of the 1000s of other guests we host annually. After digging into the details to determine where the process broke down, we discovered the following -- (1) we responded to your request for service within an hour of receipt. You messaged us at 7:13, and we dispatched our maintenance team to assist at 8 am; we responded to your message outlining our course of action. (2) Our maintenance team came to the condo to address the shower drain and hot water, and unfortunately, no one answered the door, so they could not address or resolve the issue. While we did our best to respond to your request for assistance in a timely manner and hate that you felt we were unresponsive, we certainly would feel the same way you feel if we were in your shoes. The maintenance team that was on the ground neglected to tell us they were unable to access the room and, as a result, unable to assist you. Had we known this during your stay -- either by maintenance calling us back or you let us know the problem hadn't been resolved, we could have easily readdressed the issue. We are sincerely sorry things played out the way they did. This is not the experience we want any of our guests to have, and it was easily resolved with an extra phone call. We hope you'll give us another chance to improve your experience and will stay with us again in the future.

Reviewer Comments:
The downstairs bedroom was a disaster. It had an unbearable odor that Lysol would not take away, uncomfortable mattress, in dire need of new linens, broken sliding door.The kitchen had the bottom of the oven exposed and no fan or hood.Family room dirty carpet. Lawn chairs on patio the straps were broken in chairs. Upon arrival went to use washer & mold in the lining had to clean that out. Drains were very slow draining. Dishwasher didn’t work.Beautiful view from patio. Still has popcorn ceilings.The description was incorrect - said fireplace, no fireplace, kitchen was not updated, no work area as mentioned. We did not care about the fireplace or work area. The upstairs was better other than shower drains that did not drain well.Nice restaurant on property.
