Bester Wert !! Schneller Spaziergang zu den Skiliften und zur saisonalen kostenlosen Chondola !!

Thank you for leaving a review Patricia! I put alot of TLC into the condo because I want my guests to be comfortable and to love their vacations! I'm very glad you enjoyed your time there! - Laurie

I love my condo with all my heart. I bought it 20 years ago when I was working really hard. It was a refuge when I really needed it. This review implies that I have been ignoring my condo, but I work hard to keep it nice, and I enjoy having people stay there. This guest's review is not truthful. You can see that my listing title (right above this guest’s review) states that the chondola is seasonal. Please allow me to reassure you that you can indeed vacation at the condo without a car. My listing clearly states that when the chondola is not running (it runs during ski season), there is a free shuttle that stops at the base of the condo driveway every half hour. It takes you (and your dog) to the Market and gondola, among other places. I also have Dial-A-Ride available to my guests, also clearly stated. The ability to get around Mountain Village and into Telluride without a car is one of the coolest things about my condo. This condo is a one-level unit that does require a set of steps up one story. This is not unusual for condominiums and if someone has mobility issues, they should definitely inquire, regardless of where they are renting. My guests are always welcome to ask questions before and after they book. I will also note here that being one level up affords a decent view from the deck, over the parking lot and toward the aspen groves and mountains. The back of the condo sits at ground level because it was built on a slope and sometimes in the summer you can see deer grazing right outside in the aspens from the bedroom windows. There is one unit above my unit (also common for condominiums). It is owned by a nice couple from Florida who have a child and a dog (dogs are very popular in Telluride). They typically stay for a while in the summer, and rent it during the rest of the year. Occasionally I can hear people or a dog above me, but not very often. My condo is dog-friendly, and I presume this guest enjoyed that perk because a pet fee was paid. I will add that if the folks upstairs are being noisy and it bothers you, please do not hesitate to let me know. I find a gentle reminder from me is enough to quiet them down. The sliding glass door handle recently became loose and I had it fixed by a professional locksmith, but the repair did not work and I am now using a different locksmith to hopefully order a replacement part. Things wear out and some things take some time to repair correctly. There is a wood bar for behind the slider so that the slider is secure when you want security. I have never canceled a guest because I need time to make a repair. Most repairs I can get done before the next guest, but sometimes not. Most guests are very understanding about that. I have a note in the condo for guests to "please let me know if something is broken or not right", but I rarely get notified. Such is the case with the towel bar that this guest mentioned, but I am trying to get that repaired in the next few days. I do my best to be sure there are basics available such as coffee filters, napkins, laundry soap and dish soap, hand and shower soaps, tissues, paper towels, salt and pepper, spices and teas, etc. Sometimes something runs out and I am not aware of it. I have a supply of “wash rags” for guests but they don’t always get put out by the cleaners, who try very hard to make the place look lovely. If you wish for a kitchen wash rag and do not find any, there should be plenty of paper towels as a substitute. Sometimes a bed sheet may have a light stain that I am not aware of. I do replace sheets on a regular basis. I use the best cleaners in the area (Ajax Cleaning) but they are not infallible and neither am I. If you look hard enough, you may find something that got overlooked. If you find the condo not clean, please let me know immediately so that I can get Ajax back there asap. If there is any issue with the linens or some item that you need more of, please let me know and I will tell you how to access the linen armoire, where I keep extras of most things. That said, I do not understand this guest's complaint about washcloths. I always set out one washcloth per person, with extras beneath the sink, but not one per person per day. Also, there are no stains on the shower curtains and the shower liners get replaced on a regular basis. The cotton shower curtains are original to the condo when I bought it and I think they are adorable. They get washed as needed. No one has complained about the couch before this review, but I will admit that it is getting a bit squishy. I am currently on the hunt for a new one that looks as nice as this current one and is as easy to keep clean. I hope I covered everything. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

For those reading this review response, my guest generously emailed me and apologized for using the word "issues" instead of "opportunities". The free gondola linking Mountain Village to Telluride is a fun and popular mode of transportation during the Telluride Film Festival, and I provide some info on how to use it at the condo.

To reassure future guests: The upstairs owner assured me he is finishing with his remodel this weekend. He should not have been working in the evening! I do encourage guests to let me know when they observe a problem that I may not be aware of. In this case I am grateful for the mention of the leak from above. I am currently working with the upstairs owner to locate the source of the problem. Regarding distance to the core of MV… The condo is about a four minute walk to the Chondola which runs during ski season. There is also a free shuttle that takes us to the MV Gondola during all other times.

So sorry you were distressed by my little notes in the condo. I manage the condo myself and the notes have resulted from previous guests needing help with something or making a mess of something (ie one guest flooded the bathroom floor because they fiddled with the float level in the potty tank). My guests are not expected to clean. But this is a party town and I have had to deal with some huge messes, so the suggestion on the door is to be responsible for any unusual disturbances a guest may have created.

Hi Lynne, I’m glad you enjoyed your stay. There are cleaning solutions in the cabinet above the sink. Laundry detergent is in the closet with the washer and dryer. I do appreciate your bringing to my attention the lack of a kitchen sponge. I had a conversation with the cleaning and care company that I use, and they told me they provide handheld brushes for any sink cleaning, and avoid sponges for environmental reasons. While I agree with not wanting extra environmental waste, I have provided sponges for the cleaners to put out, and extra dish cloths. My apologies that the dishwasher soap ran out, I was not aware. Regards, Laurie
