Nordic Inn

8/10 Good

"Our room was very clean and staff members were very helpful. The breakfasts were fair. The building was older but had been updated. There were very few outlets in our room. There was no air conditioning. We had a ceiling fan and a window fan. However, if you used the window fan, you could not close the shade completely. The price of the room was affordable. The free public transportation was nearby."

The Lodge at Mountaineer Square, A Vail Resorts Property

8/10 Good

"The staff were excellent. Very warm and friendly. Outstanding customer service. Our room seemed a bit outdated. Small tv in a large cabinet .Our bathroom had an older tub, the bathroom cabinet had numerous paint chips ,the small vanity mirror light was out. In the bedroom one of the light bulbs was out in a lamp on the night stand. For the price of the room, the resort fees, and $30.00 a night for parking seemed high for the quality of the room."

"The views were stunning, breathtaking. The house is beautiful, very comfortable and perfect for our family reunion. Everything was perfect. I have one suggestion: it would help if there were directions as to how to turn the oven on and dealing with all the fancy light switches. I'm not complaining, we did eventually figure everything out and loved every minute of our stay."

10/10 Excellent

"The location of this place was perfect - you can walk to anything in town, and the grocery store was very close, as was Camp 4 Coffee. The place was cute, lots of fun stuff included - and the high volume shower - loved it! We also appreciated the fun extras; nice beer selection and a pretty tasty red wine. All the furniture was comfortable - the place seemed bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside."
