This place would've been great but there were a few issues. The front door was sticky and finicky - you had to get it closed just right in order for the deadbolt to actually lock, so several times we had to put the code in a few times before it actually locked. The mattress in the master bedroom was the worst I've ever slept on - so were the pillows. The pillows were all flat and useless and the mattress was like sleeping on the floor. It was awful. The mattress in the 2nd bedroom was slightly better but lumpy. Needless to say, we didn't sleep well at all during our stay. The main bathroom had an awful smell...like cigarette smoke and something else. It was disgusting and very strong, so we just left the door closed the whole time. Thankfully the master bath was nice. ||Our unit had a nice, updated kitchen, comfortable couches and a pretty nice view of the mountain. There were lots of hummingbirds buzzing around, which was fun to watch (the neighboring condo has 4 hummingbird feeders out.) ||The location is awesome - you're within walking distance to the gondola, Nottingham lake, stores/restaurants, etc. There is no a/c, and it definitely gets hot in there so we'd open the windows at night but then you have traffic noise and noise from people. There were some fans in the unit which was at least helpful but I don't love having a fan blowing on me all night. ||Anyway, overall it was a good place I would stay there again, but there were a few issues with this particular until that should certainly...
   Read moreWe stayed in room 222. The building itself is a little older but room 222 has been updated nicely: both bathrooms, kitchen, fireplace, and furnishings. Nice view even though the unit was on the 2nd floor and you were looking over the entrance of the building. The room was clean and well furnished. We booked through Epic / Beaver Creek and this was a much better price than I found on various VRBO - type listings. BC was easy to deal with, everything was as it should be and check in was easy.. The only thing we did not care for were the floors (fake wood / luxury vinyl) in our unit - they squeaked horribly when wearing shoes and slippery as h* when walking with socks. The nice little carpets they had would slide out from under you if stepped on it wrong (which was often). I slipped several times but caught my self on the wall or bed, my teenage child went down once. Ironic - spend all day skiing black diamonds without faltering and then go down from wearing socks in the condo ?!?1?||For skiers: very easy walk to the gondola. Ski storage in the parking garage, walk out of the garage ramp, across a not busy street, across unused rail road tracks (it is paved) and into the courtyard where the gondola is just another 100'+ feet away. Very convenient. This was our first visit to BC is a good resort, not great. We prefer Vail, Keystone, Breckenridge and Winter Park to BC. ||For foodies: not much in regards to restaurant variety within walking distance. Better off hoping in the car and driving to...
   Read moreThe WORST property managers (Effortless Stay) that I've ever been associated with. Stay Away from unit #403 at Season at Avon through Marriott Home’s and Villa web site!! ||Effortless Stay was either unwilling or unable to help us with the Condo's cable situation which is important to us. So we sat in this condo for 3 days without being able to watch any TV. When we arrived, there was no cable box in the unit. Someone disconnected the service and took the box. I took a nice photo of a dangling cable wire. ||We were told the first night by the manager on call that she is off at 8PM and would no longer be able to assist us. Furthermore, we were informed no one in Avon Colorado could trouble shoot with us over the phone, and that someone from Denver (100 miles away) would have to come first thing in the morning. That never happened. Apparently something more important came up the next day in Denver. ||Other problems that should have been addressed before we arrived include a Frozen Ice Maker that never gave us ice, Closet doors that fell off track when we moved them, and blinds that we could never close. ALL IN ALL a bad experience, and one that I'm surprised Marriot has put...
