Amenities
Wonderful stay and everything is as listed. The only things I want to mention are that the beds are so extremely soft. If you are fine with soft beds, then I recommend staying here. It extremely uncomfortable for me so I would not stay here again. However if you do not have a problem with this, this is an excellent listing.<br/>Additionally, it is really noisy outside at night if you sleep with the windows open. I'm not sure why, maybe the highway or wind. Not a problem if you sleep with the window closed or use ear plugs. Vanessa

This was a very last minute booking for our trip. The host was very responsive in getting us information for our stay. It was really easy to enter and felt very secure. We did notice a stain on the sofa but otherwise it was a clean place. The kitchen area was very nice and had everything you would need, it's too bad we didn't use it. One warning about the space that should be mentioned in the description is the steps going up to the bedrooms and bathroom, they are not very wide and pretty steep. We were good, but an older couple may find it difficult. Location was great, we went all over the city and surrounding areas and didn't spend a lot of time travelling, it really was close to everything. Good host, good location, good space, do recommend. T

Very disappointed. Didn't stay
The property was very VERY small, and despite the pictures showing a driveway, the day we were arriving I received an email with instructions that said the driveway was NOT part of this unit and we needed to park on the street. The property is much smaller than it looks in the photos, so much so that my daughter felt claustrophobic from the moment we stepped in, let alone when we went upstairs to the very small second bedroom. Tried to get at least some of our money back but the Host, a company called Hoste, refused, saying that VRBO wouldn't allow it. I contacted VRBO and they said this was NOT true, that Hoste could issue a refund or partial refund at their own discretion. There's no way to know just how small this place is without looking at it, so hopefully our experience will at least help someone else not lose money with Hoste in the future. We rented another place in Palmer Lake which was thankfully available, had a much better refund policy (lesson learned!). Enrique
