Nice place, one towel hanging as clean had a sh@! Stain running down the middle of it, said it had air conditioning and just had a cooling fan, wanted to take an Rodin salt bath but the plunger in the tub didn't work. Other than those things, clean and a great location. Honestly would stay there again.

Great stay!

The Laughing Magpie was the perfect place for our family of four. Cozy, comfortable, and clean. It was a welcome refuge after eventful days of hiking, shopping, touring, and exploring. Check-in and check-out were easy compared to some of the other methods we’ve experienced in the past. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone wanting a simple, cozy place to stay.

Convenient and close to town

Lovely condo a few steps from downtown. The condo is great for a stay in Ouray. It has all the basics you could need and is very comfortable. Laundry is a few steps away. Our only dislikes were the skylight over the bed, and the kitchen could use a few more cooking prep items. Would definitely stay again.

Anniversary Fun in Ouray

Easy to find and to check in. Cozy for the 2 of us and close to everything. We didn't cook, however there appeared to be the necessary basics. This is a second floor unit so if you have difficulty climbing stairs this condo is not for you. There's a nice little deck with a pretty view.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the condo very much. we were fine with the stairs but seniors might have a tough time with them. My parents would be in that category, so we suggest you make that really clear on your listing. The location was literally one block from Ourays Main Street so we walked to breakfast and dinner most days. The condo is really nice and exactly like the picture indicated: we highly recommend this rental!

Cozy Great location!

We stayed for a long weekend with our daughter and their wife. If you can't do stairs, this is NOT the condo for you. It is on the smaller side with an apartment size refrigerator and stove, but we made it work. The gas woodstove was perfect for our wintery stay. Check-in was hampered due to our struggle with the lock and we did not have any cell phone reception in order to get in touch with the management. We finally figured it out and all was good. The shower does run VERY hot, but with a little finesse we adjusted it to what worked for us. Location is one block to the main street and lots of shopping, restaurants and a fantastic wine bar!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was in front of other units, and on the upper level, with the high windows which are not available on lower units. This view made the stairs worth wile.The unit was very quiet, and reasonable priced, approx. same as motel across street. The condition was medium quality. Bath was small for 2 br. unit. Would have enjoyed larger bed. Would stay again, and hope to get this unit.
