Nicole's place was absolutely perfect. I don't say that lightly.
Check-in was seamless. The furniture was very comfortable. The decoration was very well-done and inviting. The bathroom, even though it was shared by 4 people (my parents, my partner, and myself), was VERY nice and big enough to accommodate all parties. The kitchen was a dream!
Nicole's backyard and the front porch were probably my favorite places to be. Picture this: cool Colorado summer rains in the afternoon on the front porch with a glass of wine; an evening grill with my family in the backyard with substantial room for my pup to run around beneath the strands of lights overhanging the patio; and walking distance to Trader Joe's and countless restaurants and shopping areas in a VERY walkable and lovely neighborhood (not to mention very near the Botanic Gardens). This is Nicole's place.
We kept the windows open most of the time we were there, soaking in the breeze from the mountains. So comfortable and inviting. Would DEFINITELY stay here again. I actually miss it very much. Five stars, for sure.
