### Perfection!! (5/5)
The unit is awesome. Every amenity was taken care of and the location is perfect. The fact that almost 4 feet of snow feel during the stay made it all the more magical. 
[The local team] crushes it with the customer service and almost instantaneous response time. I will definitely be staying here again. Thank you!

### Aspen stay (5/5)
Fantastic view and absolutely wonderful condo.  Close to all the shops and dining and hiking!  Host was extremely responsive with questions and recommendations if needed.  The stairs and walk back from dining are not always fun because of the incline but it was not a problem.  The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. The condo was very clean and we had plenty of towels so we did not have to do laundry to have enough towels for the week. Easy check out procedures too.  We had an early flight so we didn't have time to do a lot of clean up prior to leaving and none was required.

### Aspen (5/5)
We stayed at the Durant hosted by [our local team] and everything was amazing. The location could not be better, 5 min walk to lift 5 min walk to heart of town. Everyone [on the local team] has been amazing especially with response time of ant questions that we had. Yes there is no elevator but it's really no big deal its 3 small flight of stairs and did not mind it at all.

### Wonderful vacation in Aspen (5/5)
The condo was clean upon check-in and is as shown in the photos. There were just the two of us so the condo suited us well. Communication with [the local team] went smoothly. Yes, July can be hot and a 3rd floor condo can make that concerning; but with careful utilization of the motorized shades we stayed comfortable and opted not to rent the portable A/C that was offered. We both slept well in the comfortable king bed with open windows and the cool mountain breeze. Of note, the community laundry pricing has increased a little and there is no method by which to pay with credit card. Bring quarters (I was able to buy some from the gentleman at the transit station). The location, although uphill from town, was convenient walking-distance to everything we wanted to do. We had a terrific, memorable vacation. :)

### Aspen 1 bedroom get away (5/5)
It was a beautiful apartment. The management did a very good job of servicing the apartment. Good communication with us when we reached out. And good follow up checking that we were happy and needed anything from the moment we arrived.

### Great location, average lodging (3/5)
Great: Fabulous location, mountain views, pool/hot tub, management communication, cleanliness
Average: Very dated condo, especially for the nightly rate that is being charged. Very old appliances (one burner of electric stove broken), old cabinetry throughout unit, chipped tiles in bathroom, white chairs in main room could use upgrading (pretty stained). With a little extra thought given to the decor and small details and a simple kitchen/bathroom remodel this would be perfection.

### Dry enjoyable week in Aspen (4/5)
We had a nice time in our condo this week in Aspen .
We had a hard time getting our luggage up all the steps but we got lots of good exercise done just that .

We loved the layout of the condo .
We spent time in the living room enjoying the Sonos and watching the Olympics in the large screen TV.
The kitchen was equipped except for a dish brush but we made do .
We did use the fan the last two days .
It was needed .
The bathroom is crowded but the bathtub was nice after a long hike .
The pool and hot tub were very nice .
We walked to dinner every night and all over town two different days .

### Durant 6D Aspen (5/5)
Excellent condo, especially liked the view.  [The local team] was completely attentive and helpful in every way.  

I do think it’s important for guests to know that there are a lot of stairs getting up to the unit so they need to be able to handle that.  For us, it was a positive because we wanted the exercise,

### Durant 6D (3/5)
Location 5 stars
View 5 Stars
Accessibility 2 Stars -- Too many stairs
Decorating and Condition --3  based upon price.
Cleanliness 4 stars

Probably expected more from decorating and condition for $500 per night.
Should advertise the additional $100 per night for fees, etc.

### Holiday vacation (5/5)
The place was nice except the bedsheets smell like a perspiration. I am so glad that I brought bedsheets from home. 
I am just wondering if you can use a better laundering service. But the bedsheets need definitely a replacement.
Furthermore the rest was nice.
The views from the place was very nice.

### Beautiful Views and great location (5/5)
Was the perfect set up for my wife and I. Great location. We could sit by the fire and look at the views all day (we did one day).

### Durant 6D (5/5)
This was our first time to Aspen.  The condo had a fabulous view and was centrally located to everything.  We didn't realize there was no A/C but the owners were very attentive to our request for a fan.  After that, we didn't need anything.  The condo was very well stocked with just about every utensil or dish anyone would need.  The condo was on the 3rd floor - no elevator - but was not a problem at all for us.  We welcomed the exercise.  We would stay there again!
