Big miscommunications
Booked this for a New Year’s Eve crash pad with my guy friend. I booked a mixed gender room and I think my friend did too. Upon arrival I was given a female only and he was given a male only. We had intended to stay in the same room or be able to visit each other as we both chose mixed gender rooms. well; a very upset lady reported us to the front desk after reminding us that the rooms were NOT co/ed. So, we weren’t informed except by this lady that was a guest. We were looking around and then walked by the front desks and she literally stopped me to let me know I was in a female only. So I showed her the reservation I had made for co/ed and she apologized for the inconvenience. We went somewhere else for the night and never used our rooms. My guy friend didn’t feel comfortable after the double confrontation. It’s a shame because the facility was really nice but not worse the miscommunication and no attempt to correct it. Waste of $200

It’s well suited for 20 something’s looking for an inexpensive housing option to ski with a bunch of friends. Clean, conveniently located for copper, key stone, breck. I actually booked by accident, we are not into shared bathroom facilities and parking was difficult. I won’t be staying again, but it is a nice option for those in a budget and don’t mind sharing facilities.

I was really impressed by the customer service and how genuinely friendly everyone was. I had to stay here after I'd moved out of my place in October and in spite of being in the midst of an ownership change everyone couldn't have possibly been more hospitable.

Stay at The Pad for Skiing
I love staying at The Pad during ski season. I feel comfortable to relax there, and I love being able to use the communal kitchen to make my food. An excellent choice at an exceptional price.

really amazing, serene, chill. lots of places to relax. enjoyed the hot tub although it could have been hotter, if the staff is reading this can I suggest a hot tub cover to both keep it hotter and cheaper / more environmentally friendly to operate
