    This rental was not a good fit for us. Although the listing did indicate there was no A/C so we were aware of that, the loft remained 78 degrees with the sliding door open and all fans on throughout the night. So whoever slept on the pull out couch near the sliding door was freezing and the people who slept upstairs were sweating. Our trip was in July so I imagine this isn’t a problem in the fall-spring months. The pull out couch is not comfortable, you can feel the metal underneath the mattress. The beds upstairs were comfortable. Also, the staircase is much steeper than the photos elude. I suggested to the management company that they take a photo from the loft facing down to the living room so that the reality of the steepness is a little more visible. Not a super big deal during the day but if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, it’s a little sketchy to go down. I did communicate our concerns to the management company and while they were quick to respond, there were no solutions or accommodations outside of offering to give us suggestions on what to do around town, which did not help us with the problem we were having. They did ask if we wanted suggest ways to mitigate heat, which we had already done, so again did not really improve our stay. The condo was clean and the check in process was easy.

    We loved the convenience of walking to the slopes. The rental is cozy and met our needs but is more no frills than most (as stated by the owner in the description).

    The proximity to downhill skiing is unbeatable. Everything was as described in the listing and is well suited for a short stay.

    Perfect for a quick ski getaway. Snow was insane this year, but that roads and paths were clear. Unit could use more cooking utensils and a dish towel for drying dishes.

    Due to heavy snowfall, it was difficult to locate actual building. Narrow spiral stairway to upper level. Thick sponge mattress on main bed not comfortable for someone with back issues. No oven, borderline inadequate lighting, tricky heating.

    Pleasant little place; everything worked out well, except the wall mounted heater may not be adequate when it's really cold outside. The location is priceless when skiing is the main interest.

    Little open loft one bath kitchenette condo in kid friendly Tahoe Donner, the place to begin skiing. Lots southern exposure, glorious sunshine, view to lift. Lodge and Ski lift less than a block away. The drive into Truckee or to other skiing in the area is reasonable. Because there was a guest pass and hot tub mentioned in the TVR info, we were hopeful, but no, apparently. Maybe you can ask TVR?
