We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Biker condo. Everything was spotless, comfortable beds and great showers. Location just off the river and main dining and entertainment district made walking to eat and enjoy the area easy. Will definitely book the Biker when we return.

Great space and great location

Spent a wonderful few days in Salida and our stay at the Biker was fantastic! The condo is spacious, welcoming and so comfortable. It's in such a great location - can walk to everything in Salida. Loved sitting on the front porch with a view of the surrounding mountains. Will def stay here if our travels bring us to Salida again!

This was the best VRBO I've stayed at. In town but quiet. All the amenities you could possibly want. Ice cream parlor 2 minute walk. Lots of space, incredibly clean, very well appointed. It felt like I was home,

Among the best options in Salida

This is a really comfortable unit in a prime location. It's very well appointed, and it should not be overlooked that it's one of the few places with air conditioning (central, no less). (I personally don't buy in to the commonly held convention that you don't need a/c in Salida in the summertime; it can be a damn hot place, dry though it may be.) Plenty of outdoor space, and the two upper-level master suites work great for two couples. For those worried about noise, it's a legitimate concern in this area, but on a quieter weekend, as when I was there, it certainly was not a problem. I've spent a lot of time in Salida over a number of years, and I would definitely stay here again. The owners obviously take pride in the unit and make every effort to provide a superior experience for their guests.

charming stay at Salida downtown

We family of four stayed at the biker Dec 28 though Jan 3. The place is very comfortable and has its unique charm. The two upstairs bedroom is equally large and neat. Mostly we stayed at downstairs during our wake hours. I loved the kitchen setup. It made me felt like home. I've always wished vrbo rentals has good utensils and pots, pans etc. This unit has my dream come true. We all loved the downstairs decoration and the view out on the patio. Also the location of the condo is just perfect. We didn't need cars. Parks, hiking trail, river, restaurants and Safeway are all within short walking distance. One minor thing is maybe a moving cart will make the luggage transfer a bit easier from the garage. We had four person's ski clothes, helmets, boots etc and it took us a few trips to move everything to the condo. But on a normal trip, that kind of distance between garage and home should be no issue.

Cute Space, Great Location, Comfortable Beds

This condo is located right in the heart of downtown historic Salida. Just a few steps away are several restaurants (Boathouse Cantina | Victoria Tavern | Biker & Baker | Sweeties) and shops, as well as the Arkansas River. It is the perfect size for 2-4 people. One room has a queen bed, the other a king bed. Both are incredibly comfortable, you will get a great nights sleep. The whole unit was clean, especially the bathrooms (floor is a little cold in the winter, so bring slippers) and the showers have great water pressure and plenty of hot water. There is a long balcony off the living room | dining room with a view of mountains in the distance that would be great for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails, but we didn't sit out as it was in the 30's during our stay. The tv service is YouTube, so you don't get local channels, but there were a lot of other shows you can watch. The owners | managers communicated all the information needed to access the building and unit in advance of our stay. We felt safe both in the building and the condo. We'll definitely consider staying here again when visiting Salida.
