Affordable Purgatory Ski in/Ski Out Condo in the Main Plaza

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: You can't beat the location of this rental. Literally right on the lift. It was comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

The location is great. You are above the rental shop (remember to do your rentals online beforehand) and the pizza place and just off the main lift. Easy to go in for lunch and take off your boots. The beds are hard and the TVs are outdated which was disappointing since smart TVs are pretty much everywhere. As a result, bring a hook up from your phone or tablet to the TVs if you want to watch a streaming service. The layout is great for a family of 4-6. Two rooms each with a king bed which is great (just wish they were a little more comfortable) and then a living room separates the rooms and has a pull out couch. Kitchen is fine. Small but works. Overall…the location keeps this a 4 but a few upgrades to the beds and TVs would be nice and make it a 5. Hopefully the owners do that soon…but I would probably book again and just deal with beds or look at reviews more closely to find one that is in that same building with better beds. Could easily be a 5 with the tweaks I mentioned.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very unhappy. Needs updating. Beds are terrible. Lights in one bedroom would not work, made complaints, complaints never resolved. Priced too high for condition.

Maybe if you're only staying a night or two you could deal with this disaster, but this place is just awful. It's not any one thing, it's that the whole thing is just bad in a ton of little ways. As other reviews have mentioned, the beds are terrible. It's like sleeping on concrete, and yes, they put mattress toppers on the beds, but they're still not good at all. In summer, you have to leave the windows open at night, but the resort delivery area is right outside your window, so every day before dawn, we were woken up by the BEEP BEEP of commercial vehicles in reverse. One day that happened at 4:00 AM. The patio was disgusting, one of that chairs was broken, and the view is literally a dumpster. Only 2 of the 4 burners on the stove worked. The fridge, stove and dishwasher were all manufactured in the 80's or earlier, and you're missing basic kitchen necessities. We had to clean every surface in the kitchen and living room when we arrived, there were fingernail clippings on the end-table by the recliner, and the dishes were gross and had to be cleaned by hand (because the dishwasher is useless) before being used. The windows in one bedroom both had broken knobs, so opening/closing was very difficult. One of the toilets also clogs repeatedly under normal usage by a single person. The only positive here was that VRC (property manager) did let us break the reservation and refunded us for half of the rental.

You can't beat the location. Take the elevator down to the rental shop, shopping, restaurants and slopes. I particularly liked being able to go down to the rental shop in comfortable clothes and be able to go back upstairs to gear up for the day. We will be back for our ski vacation next year for sure.

We had a nice time, the unit was mostly as described. It was clean, the beds were a little hard, and we had maintenance people in and out of the unit one day that we were not given any notice about but they were nice.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was overall a great place to stay as a family of 4 for Christmas vacation. There were a couple of things I would offer suggestions on. The condo faces the parking lot which has a very bright security light that is directly outside the master window. The blinds were fine, but I would add some black out curtains for less brightness. Also the shower curtain in the master bathroom was about 6” too short, which allowed water to go everywhere. And finally, the TV’s were only on cable, with no option to stream any Netflix/Hulu. This day and age, I haven’t ever stayed in a rental that didn’t have a smart TV for the renter to log into their accounts. That was a bummer as we didn’t get to watch Christmas football. Again, awesome location, nicely outfitted kitchen, but could stand a few small upgrades.

Great location. Very nice condo. Beds very hard, could use a mattress topper. Street light illuminated the master bedroom at night.

Reviewer Comments: Family of three (dad plus 15 year old and 12 year old) rented this 4th floor unit for the Presidents’ Day week for a father-son week of skiing. This is our 3rd year in a row renting a ski-in-ski out from VRC at purgatory. Unfortunately unit 414 was the worst unit by a large margin of the three we have rented at purgatory. The other two experiences (both two bedroom units) were great. The pro’s for 414 are the location, which if you are renting any of the condos near the lifts is great. True ski-in-ski out. The 2/2 units are spacious and have two king sized beds and a fold out sleeper in the living room. The cons for unit 414 was that it was the most tired of any unit we’ve ever rented in purgatory and maybe rented anywhere ever. Most everything in the unit seemed like the absolute lest expensive thing someone could buy. The linens, dishes, cups, appliances (the clothes washer and dryer was good). The kitchen equipment and utensils were past due for replacement. The button of the toaster had to be held to make it toast. The knives were useless (I used a packet knife to cut things) the fridge had broken shelves and drawers. The cabinet doors and drawers were loose and falling off. The shelves were janky and mismatched. The glassware and plates were super tired and the dishwasher wasn’t good enough to make the clean dishes ever look clean. Some of the lights were hanging out of the ceiling, but the worst of it all were the beds. Both beds were like sleeping on box springs. I can’t remember in 20+ years having such uncomfortable bass in a hotel or short term rental. Also the WiFi was externally unreliable and when it did work the signal was weak. This isn’t on the condo owners as the resort manages the IT and based on our inquires, they were having issues. These issues are not the fault of VRC. In fact VRC was very responsive to any question or concerns and we will rent from VRC without a 2nd though
