Thanks for checking out my Queen Bed listing!

This is a fantastic location very close to Downtown Denver, which is a quick and easy 10 to 15 minute walk away. My home is close enough to go quickly wherever you want Downtown, but it is remarkably quiet and very restful. I am located in the upscale "Uptown" neighborhood, just east of downtown, in a working-class Victorian home (not elegant, but roomy, with character, lots of light and high ceilings). The common rooms (living room, dining room and kitchen) are available to guests for meeting space, or for just hanging out. In the summer, a large evaporative cooler and ceiling fans keep the whole house cool. The small, fenced garden in back is a work in progress, with a small patio under the grape arbor, and the front porch is ideal for watching the world go by.

The house itself accommodates up to 8 guests. I have several kinds of accommodations: queen bed in private room, double bed in private room, king bed for up to 3 people (best with small child or children) in private room, and large double sofa bed in living room for families or groups traveling together and who will book the queen bed room as well. There are other sleeping possibilities as well. Family/group rates are negotiable. The two bathrooms are shared. Two-night minimum stay preferred.

The Queen Bed Room, is quiet, bright and airy, with a comfortable bed, and is a "returning guest" favorite. The queen room comes with a chest of drawers, a nightstand, a cheval mirror, nice closet (shared with some of my things), a large comfortable armchair and another chair suitable for luggage, with modern or contemporary artwork. Guests are welcome to use the dining room table as a desk, or anywhere in the common areas. The queen room is on the first floor of my home. The bathroom is about 10 feet away from the room's door. That downstairs bathroom may be shared, depending on the number of guests upstairs.

I provide all bed linens and covers, pillows, towel sets, hair dryer, tissues, shampoo and conditioner, body wash and soap. You will need to bring something to cover you to and from the bathroom.

All taxes (totalling 14.75%) are included in the cost of each room, as are breakfasts. I charge a cleaning fee of $10 per room because of the need to sanitize everything a guest might touch or use, and to clean thoroughly before and after each guest's visit.

Some amenities in my home are Wireless Internet/WiFi, basic cable TV, baby grand piano, fully equipped kitchen and dining room, with Wedgewood china for dining, and all the fixings for a great breakfast, as you like it.

Very nearby are 4 grocery stores, from the basic to the gourmet; a number of liquor and fine wine stores; multiple coffee shops and some Internet cafes; Denver's many beautiful parks, and numbers of great and some renowned restaurants and eateries for breakfast, brunch, lunch, tea, dinner, and dessert. Churches, some beautiful and historical, abound, and many offer some of the most beautiful music and the most interesting services and dialogues around. Entertainment venues too are close by, from Brew Pub Tours to the Denver Performing Arts Complex, movie theaters and world-renowned book stores, excellent museums of all kinds and sizes, including the brand new Clyfford Still Museum, and our wonderful Denver Museum of Nature and Science and The Children's Museum. The gold-domed Colorado State Capitol, the Denver Public Library, the Denver Botanic Gardens,the Downtown Aquarium,and the ever-expanding Denver Zoo are easily reached. Most of these great amenities are within 2 to 3 miles of my home and can be easily accessed by foot or by public transportation (the RTD). The sheer number of great hang-outs of every kind is really astonishing. Denver is truly a Great City!

It is an easy 15-minute walk to downtown or less than 5 minutes to transportation throughout the city. My home is in a perfect location for a wide variety of Denver convention, dining, shopping, athletic, cultural, and entertainment experiences, for individuals and for families. You can avoid the high prices of Downtown, while enjoying all of its offerings just a few minutes away.

There is very easy access to major highways through Colorado. Come for the brilliance of the Colorado blue sky and sunshine and all the amenities that Uptown and Downtown Denver have to offer!

Supervised children are very welcome. Pets and smoking are not welcome.

  • I went to Denver for a conference and had the good fortune of staying at Alexandra's place. The center was a leisurely 20 minute walk and was particularly nice with a cup of coffee from a nearby cafe. Alexandra was the model host in every way. She answered all our questions, reminded us to stay hydrated, fed us in the morning, and chatted with us in the evening. It felt like staying with family. If I ever go back to Denver, there is no question where I will be staying.

  • Alexandra is a great host and willing to help in anyway including if I had transportation to and from the airport---she even fulfilled my request for organic non-fat milk. The house has a cozy, family atmosphere, the bed was comfy---I would stay there again.

  • What a great time in Denver at Alexandra's! Prime location for downtown museums, excellent kitchen facilities, quiet bedroom and firm mattress. She is an excellent hostess and very forgiving of my kitchen takeover-I cooked breakfast for her and the new guests and we all had a wonderful morning. Thanks again!

  • Alexandra's home was very peaceful and quiet. I loved the queen bedroom, as it is near the main door to the house and I didn't feel that I was bothering anyone by coming and going. The bed itself was extremely comfortable and the bathroom was just outside my door and very clean. The location of the house is also in a very convenient area. I walked from the house to restaurants, etc and never felt unsafe.

  • I felt like I stayed at home, worry free. I also had someone to share about my day with :) I know that Alexandra was working hard behind the scenes to prepare for me all of this. My time in Denver was super good!

    Alexandra's place is pleasant and very neat/clean. I thoroughly enjoyed my 4-day stay. Breakfast food and coffee were great, although admittedly I only partook of the nice bagels and fruit. The location offers easy access to downtown Denver, and Alexandra was helpful with pointing out various potential attractions and giving some directions. She is a most pleasant and engaging person!

  • Alexandra's B and B is an excellent place to stay whilst in Denver. It is close to the downtown area and bars and restaurants of 17th Av and you will be made to feel at home. There is a range of options for breakfast, and Alexandra has plenty of useful information about the city.

  • I loved staying here. Alexandra was so nice and allowed me to really relax. She helped me find places to go and directions on how to get there. She always had plenty of food for me to eat at breakfast and fruit to snack on. Coffee was always ready to just hit the 'on' button and enjoy. We had a couple of times to just chat, and I find her to be a lovely person. My stay was like being at home, with none of interruptions, distractions or chores. It was wonderful! This is where I'll stay when I return to Denver!
