Kayla's Airbnb is somewhat of a disappointment.
The Airbnb is located in the basement of the property. This isn't too unusual, but there are things to be aware of. The path leading to the entrance isn't shoveled in case of snow, and there were several dog droppings along the walkway. After entering the back door, the steps leading to the bed area aren't standard so you need to be especially careful not to slip. There's currently no curtain in the window, and there's no separation between the Airbnb, the entrance, and a portion of the upstairs hallway so there's less of a feeling of privacy than you'd have in other circumstances. There's also shared vents between the Airbnb and the rest of the house, so expect to smell the host's cooking while you're there. It may also be cold in the winter, fortunately Kayla was very responsive with increasing the temperature.
This Airbnb is also limited on seating. There's no desk, not even a card table. The only places to sit are on the bed or the toilet.
The main problem was the cleanliness of the Airbnb. There were multiple signs that the location isn't thoroughly cleaned between guests, such as previous guests' trash being left behind, dirt in the drawers, and dried spills on the refrigerator. The biggest evidence of this is the ants that you'll potentially stay with. They're sugar ants, so there was no risk of being bitten, but don't be surprised to see them patrolling the fridge and the Keurig. Give them a few days, however, and they'll make their way to the end tables and bed. The host downplayed the issue at first stating that she has no ants in her portion of the house, but was prepared with ant traps that she set up after several messages. This leads me to believe that the ants have been an ongoing problem. She has assured me that she would be contacting pest control, so hopefully this doesn't remain a problem in the future.
Finally, I don't see this location as a good value. The rate I was charged has gotten me nicer accommodations within similar distances from all that Denver has to offer.
