The earring has been in my family a very long time and I was so sad, as I thought it was a long-shot to ever get it back again. But I texted the staff, they said they'd already found it and they sent it back to me! I was thrilled and super grateful. All the staff members were warm and friendly, and the location is ideal for easy access to the best that Crested Butte has to offer in the summertime. I loved the delicious house-baked cookies every afternoon. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!

The ski shuttle is just around the corner and comes often, and being able to leave skis at Christy Sports overnight made it even easier. The afternoon cookies and all-day coffee/tea/cocoa are a nice touch, though the cookies run out fast. Breakfast is tasty but simple & carb-heavy: bagels, pastries, muffins, fruit, hardboiled eggs. The hotel is dog friendly, which can be a bit annoying since they don't seem to have any rule against leaving the dog. We stopped back for a bit around dinner time and there were dogs in two adjacent rooms constantly barking at each other.

What the heck happened to this place in the last two years?…read more I really hate to give a bad review to a small business, especially one that has been our CB go-to years ... but yikes. The things we used to love--a solid breakfast, delightful wine dispensers in the lobby, Adirondack chairs on the lawn, and accessible staff are basically all gone to $:&:. The breakfast has become a motel 6 continental. No eggs, no gluten free (come on! Even Cheerios is gluten free) limited coffee availability. The wine dispensers? Let's see. My first $9 glass sputtered and was empty. The second tasted like vinegar. And no a front desk person in sight to help make it right. Tiny sandpaper towels. Did this place change owners? We brought three other couples with us this time and I feel a bit embarrassed by the quality decline.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and rented out the Teocalli King Room. The sheets and bathrobes were nice, and the stand-in shower was excellent. It was quite cozy with plenty of room, storage space, and amenities to make it as comfortable of a stay as possible. Not to mention the direct access to the hot tub was a plus, which was a great addition. The host, Chris, is a superb cook and prepares a high-quality breakfast every morning of a variety of delicacies. I'm not even a fan of eggs but his Southwestern frittata has made me a believer now. He's very attentive to allergies as well and will always do his best to accommodate. My wife has a severe gluten allergy and he was always sure to supply a substitute. The only other thing he hosted regularly was beer tastings at 5, which we were unable to attend due to our plans, but he does have a nice selection of brews stored for it. The views from the B&B are great and it's located just a short walk from Elk Ave, where you'll find all the main shops and restaurants. Even closer is the bus stop that'll take you up the mountain. Overall, I cannot recommend Purple Mountain B&B for your stay. For the price point, the amenities, and level of service you're getting, it can't be beat. Definitely staying here again when we come back some day.

We stayed in the Crested Butte room which was cozy and reasonably priced; also took the cruiser bikes for a spin around town that are provided for our use. We LOVED our stay and absolutely will return the next time we head to Crested Butte.

They did end up having maintenance come up look at the AC and then decide to bring in a mobile air-conditioning venting it outside the window. The maintenance gentleman was awesome and the only person at the hotel that seemed to care. We will never stay here again.

Elevation is our go-to place for our annual trips to Mt. Crested Butte. While the obvious appeal of…read moreElevation is that it is ski-in / ski-out at the base of the mountain it is the service of the team here that makes every stay special. From the guys at the valet station who greet you with a smile and get you checked in efficiently, to the crew at Elevate who manage your skis, and the folks at Jose who serve up great food and drink, it is the staff at Elevation that makes differentiates. Elevation could use a face lift but her location and people make the experience. Personal shout out to Marco who has been a fixture at Elevation for years.

Not sure where my review went…read more.. Elevation Hotel has probably shut down to be rehabbed and rebranded. Which is a good thing. Visited over Memorial Day. It was a ghost town, which is fine however there wasn't many staff around to get service, and the coffee shop and bike shops were closed. Overall, the place was nice but felt "tired". Things seemed a little worn out and there was always a horrible mildew smell at the elevator foyer for our floor. Pool and outdoor hot tubs were in need of some upkeep. There is really nowhere else to park, so we got hit with a $30 a day parking fee to park in the grimy garage. There was also a high resort fee that was unexpected. If Elevation remains the same and doesn't get a makeover - I wouldn't stay there again.

This is a January 2022 review so it is recent and relevant…read more Be aware that the master "bedroom" that has a nice bathtub did not have a door installed. So, not only did the master bedroom not have a door, essentially the master bathroom did not have a door either. Please look at the property pics that show the bathtub in the master bathroom. During the stay we requested that the door be installed and they agreed but never got it done. The door was in the closet but the hinge hardware was missing so we could not hang it ourselves. The property description needs to state clearly that the master bedroom (master bathtub room) does not have a door so that guests in the living room below can hear every whisper and can also walk up the stairs to sneak up on you bathing, sleeping, getting dressed, etc. as there is no door! I left a 4 star review on VRBO saying that the property would be a 5 star if only the master bedroom door was installed. Kathy Reid then left a retaliatory 3 star renter review. So, in summary the property is misrepresented and be careful leaving a critical review on VRBO as they will then leave a revenge rating.

Let's start with the most horrendous: No HOT WATER to shower! Why? Well, according to the Grand…read moreLodge...We only have 1 boiler and they are fully booked so usage is overwhelming the system and causing a lack of hot water. This has been going on for 2 days... And it's not just a limited amount of time... We have been trying to get hot water for many hours. Now there are a lot of other issues that I will list but a ski resort not having hot water is unacceptable. Let's look at some other things. Attached are pictures of the drawers. Would you put your clothes in here? We booked a place that's supposed to have kitchen facilities. The kitchen facilities consisted of a small refrigerator and a coffee maker. The layout prevents access from one side of the bed. Vacasa is also useless. Before we checked in on February 11th, they sent a million notifications with useless information and incorrect information. They have been useless in getting anything rectified. They keep saying the right tickets but I don't know what the tickets are for.. because there's never anything that happens from them. Not that this matters, but the decor is circa 1976. When we came in yesterday, the door to the closet was hanging loose. To their credit someone came immediately and fixed it. Perhaps I would have been better off in a hostel! There were other minor issues but why would anyone want to come to a place where they don't have hot water to take a shower
