The best condo at Blue Messa lodge

I think this is the best located condo in the Blue Messa lodge building with the best view at the mountains and village base with Chondola. This unit is at the very top 4th floor and located right in the center of the floor. We loved the location and the view! 1 min walk out of the building to the Chondola and 1.5 min to the Village Express lift - very convenient, almost ski in/ski out. In proximity to all village stores and Free gondola as well. Our teenagers 16 and 13 yo were roaming at the village and Telluride all by themselves.Very good for family of four. Had almost everything needed for a week's stay.There are couple of things though I would improove - we had no spatula at all to cook with (borrowed it from neighboring family members). And the unit can be made so much more functional, utilizing loft and main area so much better - like more beds (vs sleeper sofa) to accommodate all the members of visiting families. There is so much space to make it much more interesting and functional. It is a big space but it feels small because there are so many tables and unneeded furniture.This is just a constructive criticism though. We still loved the place, and would come back again!!!

Great Location but Needs Beds Updated

We overall enjoyed our stay at this unit. I'd like to explicitly mention if you want to prioritize rest— this is not a great condo to stay in. The pull out couch & bed upstairs need to be updated and are not very comfortable. In fact, the pull-out couch in the main living area, is inverted and slants inward towards the cushions, putting your head at a lower level than your feet. My guest stated they could feel springs on their ribs, and when you toss & turn throughout the night it makes a loud sound repeatedly for everyone sleeping in the unit. The upstairs bed is more comfortable, but it is hotter upstairs and there are no windows and the fan in the closet is broken. If you want to nap during the day, the unit's sky-lights have no curtains so you can not achieve any type of darkness anywhere inside. For these reasons I would suggest staying elsewhere. Otherwise, everything else was great. When we checked in our door-code didn't work, so we were not able to get in inside after a long travel day. Someone was not sent to assist us, and we played a game of using different door-codes "until one worked" which made for an interesting experience. Again, good location. Please update the beds!! Thanks.

Great condo for early summer in Mountain Village

My husband and I stayed here and loved it. We were pretty center to Mountain Village so it was easy to get to the gondola and restaurants, as well as into the Town of Telluride. The condo is great for 2 people, plenty of space, comfortable couch and bed. Cut patio to people watch and drink coffee from. We'd stay here again. Thanks!

Off season stay

I needed quiet time to do some work, the condo in the Mountain Village was perfect for it. It was comfortable, the grocery store is walking distance, a good stay all around. A note to maintenance, the sink in the bathroom does not drain properly, and kitchen sink disposal is very loud and rattles. Otherwise all was fine!

KRBL

Queen bed very uncomfortable for 2. Mattress-pad was ripped and stained , which I noticed making the bed , no fooling me, I am a nurse. This was changed out after I notified housekeeping. This should have been noticed getting the bed ready. Not ready for a third person( adult son) to sleep on the couch. No sheets ready for him. No sheets found in the condo. I searched all dressers and closets. First night he had to sleep in his clothes on the pullout couch. After contacting housekeeping they brought sheets the next day. However we had a good time staying there. Great location. Less throw pillows would make the place less cluttered when guests bring their travel bags.

Great location in Mountain Village

Property is very conveniently located, literally steps from the snow at the top of the Chondola. Just a few minutes walk to the stores and restaurants of Mountain Village and the free gondola which takes you down to Telluride. Couldn’t have picked a better location. Very well stocked with more than enough towels, toiletries, etc. for a family of 4 for our 5 night stay. Starter coffee, detergent, etc. was enough to last the full trip. Wont knock a star for it since the previous reviews warned us plenty already but the sofa bed mattress is horrible. Kids took the main bed and loved it, we didn’t get a single night of decent sleep. Would highly recommend owners doing something about it.

Great Place with exceptions

This is a very nice well appointed unit. It is in the center of all of the activity in Mountain Village. This area is so pleasant and care free. This unit was priced right for the season and had a great kitchen and plenty of open space and outdoor seating. There are two things that kept me from giving this unit a five star rating. The unit had a couple of areas where it could have been cleaner. One was the bedding in the pull out couch which we did not use but we were checking it out when we arrived for possible future use and we discovered that the bedding was dusty and had a couple of things that looked like roach wings. The couch definitely smelled musty and could have been cleaned better. That is something that can be remedied. The other issue that we had was the proximity to the corner bar whose patrons tend to get a little rowdy in the evening hours and this continues until midnight on most nights. Sometimes it spills out into the plaza area and with no AC in the unit and the windows open you cannot help but be included in the partying whether you like it or not. Overall, this still is a very nice unit and i would stay here again.

Not as Advertised

I booked this stay for 4 adults, and upon arrival found out the internet did not work, and the second bed (a sleeper sofa) was broken and could not be pulled out. My wife and I had to sleep on the floor both nights, and management still has not addressed compensation for this major inconvenience. Paying full price for a property with half the advertised sleeping arrangements is NOT okay. Avoid AvantStay at all costs.

Clean, efficient, great location

Perfect location in mountain village. Was a great size for one couple- plenty of room to spread out. Everything was spotless. We did use the fan as the loft bedroom got a little stuffy. A tall standing fan might be a nice addition (as opposed to the box fan since it’s not quite tall enough to feel the air flow). But it really is a wonderful condo! Would happily stay again.

Perfect spot for a ski vacation

I stayed here over Presidents’ Day weekend with my almost 13yo son. It is in a PERFECT location. The ski locker set up is great. Literally steps to the top of the Chondola and ski down to Sunshine express to get to the top of the mountain fast. Right in the thick of Mountain Village too for dinner, coffee, shopping, etc. We would definitely stay again. The furniture layout is a little wonky facing the non-operable fireplace instead of the TV. I would recommend rearranging it a bit to make it more comfortable to watch tv. There were also no kitchen hand towels. I called to ask for some and they brought more bath towels. I felt bad about using a fluffy white bathroom towel in the kitchen. But obviously nothing that interfered with our wonderful weekend stay. Thank you!!

A beautiful property in the heart of Mountain Village, in walking distance of the free gondola and restaurants. Loved the airy loft bedroom and spacious kitchen and living area. The spiral staircase was a bit of a tricky climb after a week of hiking and physical activity, but that’s on us :). Lovely views for an autumn retreat.
