Guest Review of the Marketplace Lodge Whistler
Jan 22, 2010
I needed a place to stay in Whistler for one week that had covered parking and
internet. After much research I found this. It was perfect for one week. Had all
the amenities I could think of.

We stayed in Room 222 for the whole month of Dec and it was acceptable for the
rate we paid (based on a stay of 29 nights or more). The rate for a stay less
than 29 nights is much more and I don't think this accommodation is worth that
rate. Our apartment was ok, a little dated with the decor and in need of some
TLC. It was quite big which was really good. The owner, Richard, was extremely
helpful and available throughout the booking process sending through information
and making sure we were ok with it all, also some weather reports etc. We had no
problems accessing the apartment for the first time and there were 2 access
cards which was helpful.
The bedroom was fine - huge king bed that was comfortable and enough storage
although the remote for the TV was missing which was a pain. Some annoying
things about the apartment were; the glass screen of the shower which was broken
and would come off the rails all the time, the stove was not the best and
difficult to cook in and the toilet blocked up once - they did come and unblock
it as soon as we rang in the morning so no complaints there however it wasn't
pleasant for the night it was blocked. They also left the plunger there so not
sure if they expected us to unblock our own toilet if it happened again. A
friend stayed on the sofa bed and said it was very uncomfortable sagging a lot
in the middle.
Also on Fri and Sat nights there was a lot of noise from drunk kids running
through the place. This could be remedied with earplugs however we kept
forgetting to buy them.
During our stay the apartment was serviced weekly and towels / bed linen
replaced but the cleaning was sporadic.
The one thing this apartment could really use is wireless Internet. We managed
to get onto a neighbouring network but it would've been a real pain if that
wasn't there.
All in all an acceptable apartment.

Enjoyed my long weekend at the Marketplace Lodge very much. Like any property
with individually owned condos, you do face a bit of "luck of the draw" as to
quality of furnishings and such. My 1 Bedroom unit (236) was very comfortable
with a better equipped kitchen than most condos I have rented.
I am not sure if all units offer it, but 236 offered free calling anywhere in
the world which was a great opportunity to catch up with far flung friends.
Also appreciated was the one free underground parking spot provided. Not a given
at all Whistler hotels/condos. I got a good rate at short notice through the
Whistler Blackcomb web site.
This property is in the area designated Whistler Village North. It's an easy
walk to Whistler Village proper if you aren't in ski boots but I would recommend
you take the shuttle if you are in ski boots and/or carrying your
skis/snowboard. |
