    There were a couple of dishes that were a bit sticky and not clean. The shower was a bit small but manageable. I found it interesting they had a lot of dishes to cook like knives and bowls but there is no oven. Not bad just interesting

    The location was fantastic. We could walk everywhere! Close to the river and hiking. Close to the Main Street for food and drink. They offered 2 free drink tokens to their main hotel restaurant and that was such a perk!

    Dishes in the apartment had a bit of residue so we had to wash what we wanted to use and the beds caused a bit of a back ache by the second night.

    It was great. A nice apartment right in town. Interior was modern and well taken care of.

    When booking it said pull out couch, ended up being a tiny twin pull out. I wouldn’t have booked that if I had known it was just a twin size. One of my kids had to sleep on the floor. Was not worth the $650 for the 2 nights we stayed.

    We loved the location!

    Nothing.

    South Main is a gem of a town situated along the Arkansas River and surrounded by massive mountains, some of which tower at above 14,000 feet. Our apartment offered by South Main/Surf Hotel was superb and felt like home with all the necessary amenities. Finally, a mention of the hotel bar/restaurant (Wesley & Rose) was a fave. The food was delicious, and the ambiance was excellent.

    Only a few small things: a towel ring for the hand towel and more hooks in the bathroom. And the apartment could use a full length mirror (near the bedroom hallway would work) or at least another mirror somewhere.

    The penthouse apartment was sleek and comfortable. The high ceilings and decor made it easy to relax. The living room was huge and we enjoyed the fun, retro furniture. Kitchen had everything we needed and bathroom was elegant. Beds were super comfortable and it was nice to have a balcony, even in the winter.

    There was nothing I did not like.

    I really liked the kitchenette the room had. It consisted of everything you could possibly need for coffee, tea, warming things up and keeping things cold. Even had dishes and spices to cook with. The only thing it did not have was something to cook on. Maybe adding a hot plate would be beneficial.

    The hotel served no breakfast, but in our one bedroom apartment, we had a full kitchen, and therefore cooked our own breakfast, or we also had the option to go to a restaurant nearby, in Buena Vista. The apartment was very stocked, esp. the kitchen, and had everything that we needed. Lovely!

    We wished the property had more mirrors. We were there for a wedding so it was tough getting ready with the only mirror being in the bathroom. Also had a bartender at the Surf Hotel bar that was very rude when trying to use the drink tokens that were provided by the property. Every other staff member was very nice though!

    We loved the residence and how it was decorated. It was very clean. Free parking.
