independentbasement owner and family lives upstair ,comfortable and clean

The sheets and mattress pad on one of the two beds were stained with bodily fluids (large, spreading areas of urine discoloration from obvious bed wetting and small spots of blood). Some of the pillow slips also had smaller stains. Please throw ruined linens away. Had it not been for additional linens in the closets with which I remade the beds, we would have been in a quandary, as I could not have slept on the original bedding. The availability of sufficient cleaner options in the closets raises the question: why would you ever present soiled linens to your guests? This was a jarring greeting. As others have noted, the children of the house have ridiculously undisciplined bedtimes for a rental situation, romping and thumping around until midnight. This threw off our lighter sleeper's cycle even after the river dance had stopped, resulting in only one hour of sleep the night before an early morning flight. The almost disconnected toilet seat sealed the sour deal for a place that otherwise could have rated very highly in terms of design and amenities. On a minor note, instructions for parking and entry were somewhat unclear. We parked in the only open spot across the street in front of their neighbor.

It was a very comfortable home away from home. However if it was supposed to be just like home it lacked things for cooking like a cookie sheet or a mixer and a working can opener. Had to purchase a mixer and a cookie sheet. The staff was also hard to communicate with. When asking for kitchen towels or wash rags to clean up the kitchen.

Needed ice trays in freezer . Everything else was great

The ease of booking, clear directions, photographs, cost and overall high class of the space made it an easy decision to book this property and feel safe.

The unit appear nice and bright in the pics and the stairs appear to be only one access. The outdoor furniture they refer to in on their front porch and not very inviting to guests. The bathroom was nice and it was clean but I cannot say the same for the rugs or table set. there were food stains all over it. I ended up cleaning 2 myself just so we could sit.This unit is nice but not for ANYONE WITH EVEN MINOR MOBILITY ISSUES OR IS CLAUSTROPHOBIC. This unit is not only NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE BUT ITS A FIRS HAZARD AT ANY LEVEL. It's literally in a basement with no walk out or view of anything but a trash filled gully. We kept the curtains shut. The hosts were very loud as they had a big loud family. I have a big loud family, so I understand but putting guests below this amount of family energy is a little disturbing.THE ONLY EXIT IT UP THE STAIRS WHERE THE DOOR CAN BE EASILY BLOCKED BY THE EXITERIOR DOOR BEING OPEN TOO. VRBO WERE BY FAR THE WORST TO TRY TO DEAL WITH. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU USING VRBO OR THIS UNIT.We ended up renting a hotel for 2 of the nights due to the unit and the hazard I felt was in place for my sister and myself. We did return for the last night as it was closer to the airport.

We had a great stay. The place was well-maintained and the host was very responsive. Thank you.

Great place and host! Very accommodating

The place was good for what we needed. We didn't have control of the temperature and the portable heater was broken. It's a little awkward going through the garage and then going into the basement. It did get a little loud in the evening

Everything was readily available for us when we checked in. The only thing we had to provide was toilet paper and trash bags. But overall everything was perfect

The host was fine, responded kindly and promptly. Unfortunately the condition of the unit was horrible. The unit was dirty, rotted moldy food in the kitchen. Dirty dishes and pans. Dirty refrigerator/freezer, broken stove, broken toaster. General dirtiness and stained and damaged furnishings. Wad of hair in the shower drain. Hair on the bedding and towels, and wads of hair left in the floor and washer. Stuff splattered and smeared on the walls and doors throughout the unit. Lack of kitchen utensils, glasses, etc. three mismatched forks and spoons, and no butter knives. Filthy pans, and cooking utensils. Everything needed to be washed. Overall, just icky. Additionally, the folks upstairs were incredibly loud throughout our time there. We clearly understood that this was a shared building and would have expected some noise. This seemed beyond what was appropriate with kids running back and forth, yelling, seemed like a party going on. In fairness to our host, we were aware that this was an attached unit and we did not talk to the host. Because of the purpose and arrangement of our trip we were limited on our choices to relocate and we did not want to have a contentious encounter with the host who lived on site.

It was a fun experience.

Very close to Denver airport. Lovely area of East Denver. House relatively easy to find - although I didn't see the house# until my 3rd pass in the dark. Easy entrance thru garage. Hallway dark upon entry at night and stairs a bit steep upon entry - it is a converted basement shelter apartment. Clean and basic. Kitchen fully stocked. Very small fridge. Front room bed comfy. Nice large shower. Really appreciated the gallon of water for my beverages. (I highly recommend offering shelf-stable half-n-half 1 Tbsp servings. I almost bought a box of 24 for 3) There is of course a lovely local coffee shop breakfast spot nearby. It was a very nice place overall and just what i needed for my visit! Grateful for the last minute reservation.

It was very easy and had everything I needed. However, it was extremely loud one evening with a whole bunch going on upstairs. I would have liked an actual lock on the door down to the basement apartment. It made me feel uneasy that there wasn't one. Nothing made me feel like I needed one but since the family is so close it would have felt more private with a lock.

Property was not ready when we arrived at 4:30pm so we had to wait in our car until ready. Refrigerator is quite small but with just 2 of us we managed. We were away from the home all day and it was nice to get back to the home to watch a little TV. The main reason i selected this vrbo rental was for the washer/dryer. The owner also allowed me to park in the driveway, which i appreciated very much. Overall experience was good and i would rent again.

Nice, quiet, clean, safe, conveniently located home away from home for 2 couples visiting Denver for a few days.

Check-in was simple, and the place itself was very cozy.

The place was clean and safe. Check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. It was a basement unit but with a chain lock inside for safety. Good safe neighborhood. There was a really intense food smell throughout our stay that wasn’t very pleasant.

Check in was great but the listing said it came with a smart tv, cable, and toys and entertainment for kids it did not, it had a cheap TV with antenna only, the beds were very hard, had dirty walls. Usually from my experience with a vrbo they usually have food in the fridge or pantry, minor stuff like milk and eggs maybe some bread and crackers but there was nothing. The water in the shower when from hot to cold to hot to cold very random. The smoke detector wasn't plugged in. They are very nice but our experience was not. Lastly my wifes car was side swiped on the road the first night.

Very clean, spacious, and comfortable!

The hosts are absolutely wonderful people, they were willing to go out of their way to help me any issue I was having. I would definitely recommend to a traveler who is alone, I felt very safe and the neighborhood was very nice. Overall 5 stars for the hospitality and kindness of my hosts. Thank you again!

Great spot. Last minute find.

Comfortable basement apartment easy to access with plenty of elbow room. Conveniently located near major highways making commuting very simple. We stayed with our two adult children. We all had plenty of space to relax after a long day. Super convenient highly recommend.

Everything was fine until the smell of curry all day

We stayed here for four nights, and unfortunately, it did not meet expectations. When we arrived, we were given the wrong door code and were unable to reach the host by phone, text, or VRBO messages. After standing outside for quite a while, we resorted to ringing the doorbell several times before anyone finally answered.Inside, things didn’t improve. One bed squeaked so loudly it was impossible to move without waking everyone up. The other bed was extremely firm and uncomfortable. Several lights were either flickering or completely out, which gave the place an unfinished feel. We were only provided a single roll of toilet paper for four people over four days, with no bathroom soap and a foul-smelling kitchen sponge. When we asked about dishes, we were told they were in the cabinet, but we didn’t find them until the second day in the dishwasher. The cookware and utensils appeared old, scratched, and barely usable.The bathroom fan was so loud it disturbed the entire house every time it was turned on. The first aid kit contained only a single gauze pad and a wet wipe. Overall, it felt like someone started fixing up the property but never finished. The price may have been fair, but the stay fell well below reasonable standards. I would not stay here again without significant improvements.

Prior to me booking this VRBO there was nothing in the title or description stating that you would be staying in the basement of this family’s home. They changed it after I said something. I didn’t think VRBO allowed shared spaces to be rented but this is most definitely a shared space. You can hear the family walking and stomping around upstairs. It’s very loud and made it difficult for me to sleep. If you want to go to bed at a decent time forget about it. Or if you plan on sleeping in you can forget about that too. There are also very strong scents of Indian spices. The bed is very uncomfortable. The sheet kept falling off the bed and the pillows are flat. The neighborhood was ok but there are cars parked everywhere on the side of the street.

When we first arrived we thought we were getting the whole house based on the exterior photo of the listing, but then looking at the listing again we realized it was a basement apartment. It was fine though and served our basic needs during our stay in Colorado.

Failed to say that youll be living with his family the entire time. No where in the descriptions did he mention that its a dual living space and refused any sort of refund when we came to find out

No cable, kids running around above your head early in the morning. Hard to find a parking spot in the neighborhood.

I'm giving this property 5 stars because the pictures and descriptions were accurate. Having said that i must warn travelers that the host likes to cook with Indian spices that are very strong and aromatic that last all night. They have kids that like to run and you hear every step. Finally beware that you are in a basement apartment and you ONLY have air tv. You will have internet, but NO cable or streaming services. We were looking forward to relaxing and watching march madness, but with the air tv it would keep stopping and be stuck on the pixels. Who ever heard of a vrbo that didn't have streaming? Especially when paying over 150 a night? Motel 6 will give you cable. Our visit was so poor we ended up canceling our vacation a day early and went home, wasting 150 and not doing the events we came to Denver for. So traveler beware of the negatives and make an informed decision before renting. I can not in good faith recommend this place. I house the host will invest in a streaming service such as direct tv , FUBO,OR YOUTUBE TV.

The communication is amazing! Felt like we were with family! The space is a space you share with the family, which makes you feel like family! Very appreciative of their accommodations!! :)

Very clean. Near many activities. Friendly and helpful hosts.

We had a great time in a ni9ce place especially for the price. We would definitely stay again if they would have us.

This home is located in a beautiful and safe subdivision. We had no issues other than getting the shower temperature to stay consistent. It was on the hot side, even though the dial was set to warm or even cold. We were also confused about it being in the basement, but the check-in process was very easy. We enjoyed our stay.
