No issues whatsoever.
The place was comfortable and clean. It had all the modern conveniences one could want. If you are 6'6, I would caution you as it is a basement suite and I hit my head a few times, but how often is that going to be an issue? The place was great.

Friday and Saturday nights major disturbance from the people upstairs into the late hours and early morning. No internet the entire stay. Tried to get connected over the duration of my stay with no luck. Contacted the host, wasn’t helpful.

I wish you would've reached out! I would've immediately put a stop to the noise levels. You had my direct number. And wifi/password are taped to your front door. Internet is business class speed through the top internet provider in the state - Xfinity. It's always on because I stream and work from home often. And you had your own dedicated line as well. Apologies for the troubles. But again, anytime this happens in the future, contact the host right away! I know the vast majority of us are always happy to help our guests. Thank you for staying.

My Denver Home away from Home for a few days!
I was in Denver for a friend's wedding at the Botanic Gardens so I wanted to be close to that area (vs. downtown ballparks, etc). It was the perfect location! Everything was as described and Sara was a perfect host! Plenty of space. It is not just a room but truly a little apartment. There is a full kitchen if you want to cook. Keep in mind that it is a basement unit so it doesn't have view windows or a ton of sunlight (transom windows) but there is a nice yard with a gazebo sitting area and the unit is super cozy and quiet. It is walking distance to "Novo Coffee" on 6th and further down is "Pho on 6th" (amazing!). I loved all the brick Craftsman-style homes in the neighborhood. Cheesman Park and the Botanic Gardens are very close by. It is a great place for a walk and Uber was easy to take me everywhere else I needed to go! I will be back! 5 Stars! 10/10! As she described it. Thank you Sara! (P.S. The wedding was amazing. What a beautiful venue!)

Nice little 1BR basement apartment
This is a quiet, spacious apartment. King-size bed had a firm but very comfortable mattress. Large walk-in closet. Bathroom has a nice walk-in shower. There is a gravel parking slot next to the owner’s garage if you bring a car. Punching in the code to unlock the door was a piece of cake. Owner has a little yappy dog who goes homicidal when it hears you come in the door and down the stairs, but it’s on the other side of a door, and it can’t get at you and rip you limb from limb. And it quiets down as soon as you get downstairs. After that you don’t hear anything but the footsteps of the owner upstairs, but they’re faint and never a problem.

Other reviews are all bs
This unit shows as it has 2 bedrooms. It does not. It is 1 bedroom with an extremely uncomfortable bed, and a couch mattress that has blood/vomit stains on it. This unit did not smell clean, none of the linens smelled clean, there’s no small heater like they say. This host tried to say we smoked inside the unit when nobody did. We made sure to smoke outside in our vehicle due to it not being smoke friendly. This host was extremely inconsiderate of our stay. She had a party/get together with some of her friends on our first night. She had a baby and a dog or two (not sure) and didn’t even consider that people were downstairs trying to sleep after a 13 hour drive from Dallas. We paid to stay there, we should have had our space respected as well. The unit was supposed to be a quick and easy stay, and it was just extremely uncomfortable the entire time. They don’t even have blankets for their guests. Sara did not care that she had us staying downstairs, she continued to do life without hesitation. You shouldn’t be a host if you don’t know how to. Especially with it not being clean, that’s disgusting. It smelled like old rags.

This review is retaliatory in response to me filing a claim against this guest for smoking and using drugs in my home and sneaking in additional people without paying for their stay. They left the place a filthy and smelly mess. I personally cleaned this unit prior to their stay and at their departure as well. I’ve been a host for 7 years. I have very thorough cleaning and sanitizing protocol. My home is always clean. The only concern they voiced during their stay was a request for more toilet paper, which I immediately delivered. That was when I caught them using drugs in my home. I have proof of all correspondence. They were perfectly happy during their stay. These guests have been reported to VRBO, I hope no other hosts have to deal with this mess of a group. They stayed two nights and I removed 2 giant trash bags of trash from my apartment. They also left their trash on the ground in the alley behind my garage. My dad had to come over and help me because they made such a huge mess. I would not recommend anyone else host this group.

Two bedrooms?
The place was very nice but it is listed as 2 bedrooms, and for the life of me, I only discovered one bedroom. Was I missing something? We had planned for two bedrooms but in the end, I had come alone so it was ok, but I searched for only two bedrooms and found only one.

This place has never been advertised as a two bedroom - it is and always has been a 1 bedroom. I love that I get a lower review because VRBO’s search criteria or user error didn’t work for you….. it is CLEARLY disclosed accurately as a 1 bedroom, sofa sleeper and cal king bed.

Hi Tyz! Thanks again for staying! So sorry you felt the pictures were deceiving. They’re all recent and taken by a professional photographer. Not sure if it’s lighting that had you thinking they look different? Pillow placement, amenities, art? Those are the only things I update and change every now and again! I was personally the one who cleaned your place for your arrival and you never expressed any complaints during your stay and even extended it for extra time. So strange to see this now when there’s nothing I can do to remedy your concerns. I had lots of extra cleaning to do when you all left, so that was a bummer for sure on my end. The place wasn’t left in good shape, even decent shape, at all. Take care and I hope return travels went well for you! Sara

Amazing location in Denver
We're love staying in this neighborhood when we come to town. Just a few minutes walk to Cheeseman Park, lots of restaurants, botanical gardens, etc. Literally cannot best the location. The property itself was good, but not great. Mostly carpet that really needs cleaning, kind of a dark basement. We've stayed in other basements like this and they were brighter. Ceilings are low as expected, but in a few spots require most people to duck or you will knock your head. A couple of little things that would be easy to fix like missing outlet covers. Good overall. The listing says 2 bedrooms but it's definitely a one bedroom with a small sleeper sofa in the living room. We didn't need to park a car, but the spot that is mentioned was taken by another vehicle. The host is in the main house and generally the noise wasn't bad. One morning we were awoken by loud noises, maybe and exercise bike or something but other than that not too bad. Sara is super responsive. The Internet didn't work at the beginning of the stay, so I messaged her and it was fixed really quickly. Great host! We'd stay again for the location, but this specific place would be our backup location if our other favorite places were taken.

short stay
Property was nice, close to Cherry Creek so great location. Pictures of unit were accurate and was a nicely done and decorated unit .HOWEVER could not stay our 2nd night. The noise from the upper floor was unacceptable. We were awoken around 3am by loud voices, dropping of items on the floor , etc. which seemed to be right above the bedroom. The next afternoon while trying to nap since we had plans with friends for the evening, the noise again plus a barking dog we decided to leave and found a hotel room. We texted and tried to call Sara but never got a reply.

Great location, clean, good for what it is
They have done a very nice job of making a basement apartment feel comfortable. If you plan to hang out at the property all day, maybe not your best bet, just due to the fact it has no natural light. As a base to explore cherry creek and denver, it is fantastic, very centrally located, walking to tons of shops and restaurants. If you have a lot of noise sensitivity, you will probably not be happy. It isn’t terrible, but there is definitely some noise impact.

Cozy, well-appointed spot perfect for a couple on the go!
My fiancee and I really enjoyed staying here. It's located in the beautiful, trendy Cherry Creek neighborhood and was minutes from many great restaurants and points of interest in Denver. The apartment itself is quiet and well-appointed. I loved the big, comfortable king-sized bed. Also, as you can tell from the photos, there aren't many windows in this space. This has the effect of making the apartment pitch black at night when the lights are turned off, which is super beneficial for healthy sleep. If you are a person who values healthy, restful sleep, this place is for you. In addition, Sara provides lots of smart, thoughtful amenties for her guests, including a soap/shampoo/conditioner dispenser in the shower; a bathroom scale; a kitchen loaded with utensils, plates, and cookware; a mac thunderbolt cable plugged into the TV, so you can plug your laptop in; a very convenient reserved parking spot; and more! Sara herself was very responsive and helpful. She really went the extra mile for us! I highly recommend this VRBO and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Long weekend in Denver
The place is great for a long weekend in Denver. We really only slept at the property; since our son lives only 10 minutes away; we shared all meals with him. We did have a light breakfast outside; nicely landscape back yard (gave me ideas for mine). The property is located in the lower level; that helped at night with the temperature being mid 90's during the day. There was no air condition and no fan was offered. Otherwise it was good for us; a basic one bedroom apartment with a low price. I may rent it again; only due to the location distance to our son. Marilyn September 9 - 11, 2021

Great host and neighborhood, a few issues
While the host was great at communication, there were stains on the pullout mattress, dirt on the floor and stained bedding. We had a slight electrical issue with the lights and while the dog barked a lot the first night, the host worked to keep the dog quieter after that. She was lovely, but it just wasn't up to my standards with the bedding and carpet stains.

Beautiful location and great place
This property is a basement under a house and is in a prime location (about 1 mile from the downtown and close to great restaurants and shopping centers). I would say this place is ideal for 2 people, but you could make 4 work. The owner has a very easy check-in process and is responsive to all questions and requests. Kitchen is fully equipped with all you need if you want to cook a meal, and the property is clean. The only very minor critique is that there is little to no natural light that comes into the property (which is to be expected of a basement though), and I think a few more lights in the main living area and kitchen would do this place a little better. Overall, however, a great stay!

Very small basement space
The owner truly lives upstairs with son and dog. You can heat movement throughout the day. The space is extremely dark with minimal natural light since in a basement. We also had trouble using the stove without setting off the fire alarm. Only "air" is a small fan provided by owner or the option to open 1 window in bedroom. Also, note that if taller than 6ft you will need to duck to move throughout the space. We checked out 1 day in to our 4 night stay due to the overall uncomfortable feeling of shared space.

Great location, decent accommodation
Positives: owner’s service and responsiveness, location, price, private parking, whole basement to yourself, refrigerator, range, nice shower, lots of storage and plenty of space for a couple. Negatives: found molded bread in the pantry, towels aren’t fresh and new (might consider bringing your own), no AC, stuffy, no natural light (you’re in a basement), lots of noise above you, low ceilings, a little difficult to find considering you have to go into a backyard and fidget with a gate. You might initially question if you’re in the right place. Enter through backyard and go down a flight of stairs.

Amazing location! Close to everything
First time staying in Denver. Sara was a great host; she gave recommendations on hikes, places to visit and spots to eat. The private entrance and parking spot made getting in and out very convenient. Even if we did not have a vehicle, the place was within walking distance to WholeFoods, coffee shops and places to eat and drink. Once inside, you'll find everything you need. Having Hulu on the smart TV was a bonus for our cherished downtime. There is plenty of storage space all over and the kitchen has everything you would need to feel at home. We never heard footsteps or any noises from above and felt comfortable the entire time. This place is great! Thank you
