Barbara is a very good host. She is very communicative, and has all of these thoughtful touches such as umbrellas and ponchos in room, in room coffee maker with coffee and lots of snacks! There were always snacks and coffee/tea in living room, and a fridge and microwave to share with other guests. In addition, the location is really close to the University of Denver. For those without a car like me, there was a bus stop about a block walking, and another one about 4 blocks away. There was also a grocery store around 15 minutes walk, and you are walking distance to the University with lots of cheap eats, starbucks etc.
