The property is very close to the resort itself. It sits directly on the public shuttle bus route and the hotels shuttle also makes it very simple to get a quick ride over to any location at Vail's villages (you can easily call for pickup as well). Hot tub was nice too. The pool itself had an issue unfortunately, but certainly not a problem considering convenience factor of this hotel and it's amenities.

I liked it a lot! Clean room. Kitchen had a lot of whatever you need to cooking. Big smart TV. Good SPA(jacuzzi, sauna, pool). The Pizza place on the ground floor was a nice surprise. Good Pizza!(I am from Nee York and I say it!).

This is one of the nicest properties that I have stayed at. Especially in Vail. It was very clean, had transport to the ski mountains. Parking was easy. The rooms were huge! They included a full kitchen and fireplace and outside patio. The resort had a indoor hot tub, sauna, and a salt room. The salt room was an outside vendor and very reasonable! Cant wait to go back to Vail Run Resort!!!

Nice place, well stocked kitchen. Shuttle takes you to the mountain and back, it takes 5 minutes. To get to the village you need a car or use a shuttle. The studio has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Terry was very helpful at the front desk. Juan was a great driver. The room was very nicely decorated. We did have a problem with the smell of the cleaning supplies. It was too strong. I think we would have benefitted from darker shades for the windows. Other than that, we loved the ammenities.

We were very pleasantly surprised by Vail Run. At first glance entering the lobby, we weren't sure it would work for us. The condo complex is not new or decorated in the very modern manner that is currently popular. But the 2BR suite we rented for five nights was warm, cozy and very well appointed. The bathrooms were new and the kitchen had been freshened up with paint. A stone fireplace made the unit very welcoming. The front desk staff and courtesy bus that shuttled us daily to skiing and grocery shopping could not have been more helpful or pleasant. The lounge was stocked with puzzles and board games and a huge TV for watching football games. The other guests and unit owners we met were terrific, and quickly started to feel like family. We experienced a minor glitch with a new looking microwave that mysteriously stopped working several times. Vail Run quickly brought a new microwave to our suite to replace it, but then the existing one started up again. We will definitely be back. The only downside is road noise from the nearby highway. Running a fan in the room helped to add white noise.

The staff and management thank you for your very kind review, your comments are much appreciated. The windows and doors on the side of the building you were on have triple panes to reduce the noise level, you do have to make sure they are closed tightly. Again we very much appreciate your staying with us.

This guest, demanded a check-in at 11:00 AM before the previous guest had even checked out. Being a small resort, we do not have the ability to move guests to a new room because they arrive early. This guest did not even complete check in. This guest was also verbally abusive to staff as witnessed by other guests.

The property is kept well however it’s very unsafe as the front door remains open all day/ night without being physically supervised. TERRANCE is the name of the staff member who is exceptionally rude, loud and threaten you ( customer) that he can kick you out if you don’t provide your vehicle details on time, we were 2 hours late to provide the details of our vehicle he came to our room, knocked loudly and said if I don’t get it within few minutes I can kick you out. What a pathetic guy is he and then he’s saying note my name if you need to I don’t care. I would never ever stay or recommend anyone to stay here. This guy has been reported to various review sites so people don’t face the threat like we did.

We appreciate your comments, We apologize for the actions of our Desk Clerk, he is new to the property, and trying to do the best job he can, following the guidelines set by the property. We will work on his customer relation skills. We ask those that arrive after hours to please check in and bring the paperwork to the front desk by 10:00 AM. We do have employees working around the building and patrolling after the Front Desk is closed.

Beautiful spot but needs a new mattress
Location is great and the condo itself is very nice. The only downside was that the bed was extremely uncomfortable. Both my husband and I could not sleep through the night. The second night I had to get up and sleep on the couch instead.

We believe this guest did not follow our published directions and call for late arrival check-in information( code for lock box) prior to arrival, she was very rude to the person who answered the phone because the was not a person to personally check her in. She also broke one of the lamps in the room, and would not complete the registration process the next day.

Checked us in to unvacated room!
When we arrived the front desk said only one key was available which was an inconvenience, since we need two. When we reached our room we started to unpack only to realize that the room was never vacated! We had to repack, move everything down to the lobby... had to wait until another check- in was processed and get the whole thing sorted out. This has never happened to us and we travel quite a bit!

Good for the money
This is a cute little resort that is actually owned units for rent. Our unit was remodeled so it was newer but clearly put together hastily. There was no soap to do dishes or use the dishwasher and the fridge was not on when we arrived and when we turned it on, it sounded like a jet engine. Also, these are older units so there is no air conditioning. They have a great pool, hot tub and outside area. We enjoyed our stay and would be back but this is exactly what you pay for... a cheap no frills place to sleep at night.

Great stay.
This is a great place. Harkens back to the 70s/80s mountain life experience. The room was perfectly clean and the kitchen was well-stocked. Perfect trip for my girls and I. We enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub. We were welcomed for an early check in because our room was already ready. Very nice welcome and stay. Will go again!

We enjoyed the price of the property as well as the amenities and location, but we were not able to sleep soundly at all due to the pizza restaurant blaring music from their kitchen right below us. I didn't mind it when we awake, but going late into the night was not ideal at all.
