Reviewer Comments:
Spotless, had everything we needed, was easy to use with great instructions, and did not have a long list of chores to do before checkout. We would definitely stay again!
Great place, on the slope, clean and comfortable.
We did not receive the check-in instructions until we called and the room lacked coffee (only decaf)and cups(only lips), so the first morning was rough. They need an elevator too.

The location was just what we wanted to ski in/ski out. The condo was in pretty good shape and the kitchen had the items we needed to fix breakfast and lunch in the condo. The employees at Crested Butte Lodging were so kind and helpful. We would definitely stay there again.

So close to the slopes you can see them right out the window! Wonderful fireplace to enjoy in the evening! Kitchen fully stocked The bathtub has jets - better and lornepricate than a hot tub! My only complaint was the mattress was really saggy on one side. Other than that, beyond impressed and would definitely recommend!

This is a pretty decent place to stay. Location is good, Close to action on Mt. CB and to the shuttle to get to CB. The Kitchen is small but functional, most all utensils you need. The bathroom is OK. Bed/mattress was better then expected. Living room is good and couch is decent shape. WiFi is fair to OK; Need to invest in sliding glass doors, probably the original doors and very hard to open. Being summer, not a lot of good restaurant options nearby.

Reviewer Comments:
Room was in a perfect location. The only complaint I have is that everytime the toilet was flushed it looked like it was going to overflow. I called maintenance who came and stated that it was not the plumbing but the toilet is very old and not water efficient. In this day of being energy efficient, it's a real shame that so much water is being wasted.
We stayed for a week in July celebrating our 40th anniversary and to enjoy a cooler and dryer climate. It was lovely! Our VRBO was perfect for the two of us. We enjoyed a couple of the board games and the cross wind between the two balconies. It was comfortable and clean and supplied with all we needed.
Had everything we needed for 2 night stay. We love the Axtell building location and we’re happy to find a one bedroom since that’s anll we needed. Only recommendation would be adding a screen to sliding glass door off bedroom. Also washing extra blankets.
Stayed as a family of 4 with two younger kids and were cozy but comfortable. Literally walk out your door to the two main base lifts.

Almost everything about this property was great. Property was clean, well maintained and kitchen was well stocked. Location was steps from the lift and close to several restaurants and bars. Only complaint was property management. Sent message that we arrived 1 HOUR EARLY, no reply. Called and person was so rude. She had no idea if the unit was clean and available (1 hour early). Apparently it was an inconvenience for her to even call me back. Then I had to call again to ask about the hot tub code - rude again - said its in the email we sent with instructions. Email wasn't sent until after check in time.
Great location. Access from parking to the unit was challenging with lots of stairs to navigate with luggage. Bed room window which opens toward parking lot did not have window coverings which is a major issue. The ski in ski-out location is awesome.

Enjoyed our time at this property. The only challenge was that loading and unloading the car involved walked crossing a parking lot and two flights of stairs so not very convenient
Great place to stay, not the easiest to get your stuff to
This room is great and literally overlooks the lifts at the base of the mountain. The only down side is that the trek from the parking lot to the room is somewhat difficult. The building faces the slopes and has no way to reach the parking lot from the room without walking all the way around down / uphill. Besides that it was great!

Overall good location if you like to be close to summer activities on the mountain. The condo was clean and comfortable. The only downside for us was you could hear the people upstairs walking around, chairs scooting on the floor and when they used the shower or toilet you could hear it our unit. Not sure we would stay in this unit again because of the noise. This was the first time we had stayed in the Axtell building. We have stayed in other condos on the mountain that are not as noisy The kitchen had everything we needed

Construction Outside
It was a nice little room for just my husband and I, just didn’t love having to park in a different parking lot because of the construction crew that was outside all of the days we were in town. Not very quiet. Lol.
Bring a suitcase you can carry upstairs and across the snow because this unit is right at the chair lift! So convenient for taking a break during lunch. Recommend bringing an extra blanket/bedding to keep extra warm during cold nights. Only basics are provided.

Great location
Access to the property is poor at best. There is no access from the west side parking lot to the east side stair wells without using the neighboring buildings staircase and carrying your luggage through the snow about 40 yards. Unloading and loading the vehicle should not be this difficult or time consuming given the checkin is 4pm or later. The condo itself is comfortable and perfectly located at the ski lift. Well appointed and has all the necessary items for a pleasant stay.

Property was as described. Great location for skiing and short walk to bus to town. Bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed the fireplace.Was challenging to find the entrance to the condo - would have appreciated more specific instructions. We never did find our ski locker and management company did not know either
