This was the perfect place for my two and a half month stay in Denver. Just three blocks from my daughter and son in law and new baby grandson! The unit was clean and well supplied with all of the essentials. Only saw the property manager once when I moved in but had no problems so no need to find him. Would definitely recommend this unit and would rent it again if the need arises. Thank you!

Amazingly comfortable

The newly nicely finished basement unit has well defined living spaces that are bigger than picture indicates. There is a decent amount of natural light, but there is also plenty of recessed lighting on dimmer switches. Bathroom is a big room with oversized shower. Great water pressure. Bed is very comfortable. The shared space is secure which is also where washer and dryer are located. Parking in back alley makes access to house very easy. I did hear some movement from upstairs unit but nothing distracting. The location is a dream. Home is located in a residential neighborhood of mostly older brick bungalows. Walkable Sloans Lake to the west and an easy drive to Speer that takes you into the heart of Denver to the east. I enjoyed the unit and it's location. Marla was easy to do business with. The unit could be my forever home.

My husband and I love to travel and enjoy adventures big and small. We love gardening, hiking, walking through the neighborhoods, and letting our stomachs guide us to our next adventure..

Why they chose this property

We love to travel and have given extra attention to things we want when we are traveling. Private entrance into a well-insulated space. It has everything you need for a longer-term stay, fully equipped and fully furnished. This studio is in a prime Denver location with easy access to highways I-25 and I-70 to get to the mountains with ease. Denver has become a food and microbrew mecca and our neighborhood reflects it. Monthly housecleaning is available for contracts over two months. If we are in town, we will greet you and answer any questions you may have about places to visit and where to eat. Otherwise, we have a house manager to attend to your needs.

What makes this property unique

This has all the amenities you desire for a vacation rental without signing a one-year lease. Available for long or short-term contracts. One month minimum. This studio is in a basement. We sometimes rent the main floor. Please inquire if there will be tenants above you during your stay.
