The place was overall pleasant. Nothing was necessarily far off from what was pictured. The host was quick to respond to my concerns, although more confrontational than I would have expected.
My issue was how unsafe I felt in the surrounding area of the rental space. I do not feel the reviews accurately represent this. This street is well known in Denver by locals to be dangerous- I was traveling alone my first day as a young woman and I didn’t feel safe leaving the property, especially after I discovered what is pictured. The host claims these are shots from a BB gun from years prior, if that is the case the glass needs to be replaced and not covered with stickers. My friend and I did not sleep easy here.
**if you want a safer area go to Boulder!
The host offered me a refund the night I arrived, however I was not finding options day of that could accommodate me at a price I could afford, which is why I stayed after discovering the bullet holes. I want to make clear that I did not have a proper understanding of the Denver culture, but I wish I had seen a review like this before putting myself in a potentially dangerous situation by staying here. Research cities before you visit and safe travels.
