The room was clean, and bed was cozy. We had a nice, relaxing view off the deck. Parking was accesible and next to the elevators
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The condo we stayed in was very clean and comfortable. Not brand new but very well cared for. Northstar was really nice, lots of restaurants and plenty to do. The rec center that we had access to with the condo, was very nice with a couple pools, hot tubs and saunas as well as tennis and racquetball courts. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was wonderful. The front desk agent, Jeremy was such a delight where he was so helpful with check in process and resort information. The unit was very clean. There is a bit of a trek from the parking lot to the unit, but completely understandable since these are condo units. The amenities at the clubhouse were so nice with the pool and hot tub.

Verified review

4/10 Fair

Here are the pluses: the towels are thick, the bed is soft, the pillows are squishy and nice, the balcony is large and accommodating, the proximity to the village is of course terrific. Here are the minuses: it’s hard to squeeze into the toilet area, and to take a shower you have intermittent scalding and freezing temperatures, the toilet leaked at the bottom and made a racket every time you got off of it because it wasn’t well attached to the floor. A delightful daycare was right outside the balcony with shrieking kids in the morning. But they’re kids so that’s not a really a negative. The beds are on metal legs so you can put lots of stuff underneath them and crack toes as you try to get around them. The elevator sounded like it was on its last legs.

The rooms was good. A few lights were out and the people above us stomped around. They woke us every morning clomping around and opening the slider to the patio. Ski equipment most likely. Conveniently located and the shuttle picked up right outside the room.
