Denver | Aurora | Pet-Friendly Extended-Stay | 17B

Thank you Patricia.

Thank you Paul for the wonderful review. Each reservation is for me an opportunity to continue to grow as a host. I have come to learn that guests are happy when they can get a clean, comfortable, convenient, centrally located space at a cost that saves them money, that they can then put towards enjoying our many local attractions. So I have made it my mission to continue to find new ways to provide the right amenities that will make all that possible for my guests at an affordable price. That way, they keep coming back, which is a win-win ;). I also enjoy doing it slightly different from other hosts, by providing my guests with a different vacation experience, A Taste of Kenya in Denver Colorado. I would love to host you again and look forward to the opportunity when next you return to Denver. Thanks Paul :).

Thank you Grant.

Thank you Kitsommad for your review. I enjoyed hosting you and your friend on your first ever trip to Colorado. It is my hope that you will consider selecting my place again on your next stay. :)

Thank you Edward for selecting my listing as your brief home during your time at the 2022 USA Ultimate Masters Championships in Aurora. Thank you for being a great guest. I enjoyed hosting you and your family and welcome you all back to my home when back for the next one :).

Thank you Mika. You were a pleasure to host and glad that your friends were able to join you despite the weather delays. :)

Thank you Connie for the great review. I was delighted to be a small part of your trip to Denver and hope that you and your best friend enjoyed some Denver downtime after work commitments. Providing for my guests so they never want for anything is a key to me. It is what helps guests like you really enjoy the space. You too were a great communicator and I am delighted that you enjoyed my Kenyan décor. I love my culture and really appreciate the opportunity to share with my guests a little piece of myself by giving them, “A Taste of Kenya!”. All my properties are culturally themed with a touch of modern and so if ever back in Denver, I’d certainly welcome you to stay again. 😊

Thank you so much Pam for taking the time to leave us such a great review. We are glad that we were able to offer you a space that met your needs. We enjoyed hosting you , and hope to have the opportunity to do so again, at this, or a few of our other listings, if looking for the same quality hosting at a new location, so as to try all of what we have, in offering guests A TASTE OF KENYA IN THE DENVER METRO COLORADO area. Thank you again for choosing us and we hope to meet again. All the best :).

A little dissappointed by this review as it does not align with much of what we provide. We provide very detailed check-in instructions with photos for check-in right from where lockbox is to where the entrance is. This is all done within 24 hours of your check-in. We also provide host contact information so that if you have any trouble checking in, you can reach out to us. We never got any communication from you other than the text informing us of your son and his wife coming to visit and ending with (AND I QUOTE) "....This is a lovely place. Thank you." COMMUNICATION: We always make sure to communicate with our guests right from booking which is why we emphasis a 24-hour response time during which time we provide guests with lots of information so that they can do their due diligence in deciding if we are a fit. On the flip side, we felt that you actually were not very responsive but seemingly new to VRBO app, as you continued to send communication via text, which is discouraged both by VRBO and us. We find text messages to be a poor way to communicate as one can miss the communication thus encourage guests to use the platform or call in the event of an emergency. We cut you some slack and did not hold it against you and even allowed you to have your family over, who stayed well into the night on many occassions to where we felt to ask if you needed extra linen for them as it would not have cost you any extra since we price for max occupancy. You may have taken offense to this (our inquiry about supplying extra linen, or request to try to keep communication on the platform) and thought we were going to reflect it in our review of you, on the contrary, we see no reason to ding guests, particularly new guests for what could be a learning curve. Please also note that Hosts have no control over the VRBO App. It is up to guests to install the App, which is simple and easy to do and VRBO can walk you through the process of doing so, such that you are keeping all communication on the platform thereby also protecting yourself as guest. As far as your comment related to the suite smelling like a basement. The reality is, it is a basement, yet we work hard to mitigate any negative experience to help work towards guest comfort as much as possible. We have Disposable Moisture Absorbers with Activated Charcoal strategically placed in the suite and one of the top quality air purifiers, Blueair Blue Pure 211+ Air Purifier which we provide in all our suites not limited to the garden level suites to help provide cleaner and fresher indoor air for guests, capturing airborne allergens and particles (dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke, certain viruses and bacteria and even VOCs from cleaning products and building materials) as indicated on our listing description. Our many positive reviews show that we go to great lengths to ensure a comfortable stay for guests. We take pride in what we offer and always seek to stand out, thus going with a mix of culture, the Kenyan culture and modern amenities. Glad you liked some of the amenities provided. Perhaps next time you will try some of our non-Basement options which we have a few, all carrying the same theme, "A TASTE OF KENYA IN THE DENVER METRO AREA." Many guests love the experience of culture and modern upgrades infused into a memorable experience. Let us know when back in town, we'd love to share the different listing options that we offer our guests making for a comfortable and convenient, short or long-term stay.

Thank you Theresa for selecting my listing as your home away from home during your brief stay in Denver. I did enjoy hosting you your family and would welcome you back again when you next come back to the area. I have a few other listings as well that you may love to check out or that you may know someone that would be looking for a month-to-month stay. Happy to work out a good rate for great repeat guests. Thank you :)

Thank you Ian for the nice review. I am glad that you enjoyed your stay. I try very hard to provide a clean, comfortable, convenient and cost saving space for my guests, so that you have something left in your pockets to enjoy some if not all of our many local attractions. I do hope you come back to Denver and will consider staying again. Please check in for repeat guest discounts. Thank you :)

Thank you Adam.

Thank you Kevin for selecting my home as your home away from home. You and your group were great guests. Thanks for respecting my house rules. You all are the guests any host would love to host over and over again. You are welcome back any time you plan a trip back to Denver. 😊

Thank you Emily for the positive review and for selecting my listing as your home away from home. I am glad to have had the opportunity to host you and your family. Hopefully your received your forgotten item that I shipped to you. :)

Thank you so much Brittany for selecting my listing for your Birthday Getaway. I hope you all had fun in Denver and am glad that I was a small part of the celebration by providing a place you could call home during your short visit. Thank you for respecting my home and leaving it so clean, I hardly knew you had a pet. I am glad to be pet friendly and opening my home up to great guests such as you all were. You are always welcome back to stay as Denver has so much that I believe there is never enough time to see it all, so I look forward to you being back. To future hosts, I highly recommend Brittany as a guest. :)

Thank you so much Cree for the positive review and for selecting my listing as your home away from home during your short trip to Denver Colorado. I appreciate you taking care of my home and highly recommend you and your guests to any host. Thank you

Thank you Nick, It was a pleasure to host you all. You literally were my first guests since starting my short-term rental and so will always have a special place in my heart. I truly appreciate the review and feedback. Hosting is something I love to do and feedback is always something I look forward to, as it really is one of the key ways for me to continue to improve my small business. Thank you for taking the time to provide your input. I did enjoy having you over and glad that you were open with sharing with me what I could do better when I asked. Clean, responsive, respectful of house rules and an overall joy to host. A 5-star guest. I hope you will pick my listing again when next coming to Denver, Colorado. I’d love to offer you our repeat guest discount. As with before, pets allowed, so bring "Tess" your adorable Terrier mix. We are 420 friendly (outside only), offer free in-unit Washer and Dryer, free parking including attached garage and can hold up to 5 guests at a time if you’d like to split the cost. Hope to see you again. Cheers and thanks again!
