I’m going to have to go back to CO in a few months and thought of bringing my dog. I was looking at Airbnb places online which allow dogs (whole houses/units as well as a room/bath in a house) last week and found them to be every bit as expensive if not moreso than a local hotel room (even with a “dog fee” and TOT tacked onto the bill). TOT is only 10.5% in CO.
So I ended up getting a hotel room for a few days with a very nice pool and jacuzzi, for which I’ll share costs with another person for half the time I’m there. Even though the place I booked allows pets for a nominal fee and a refundable deposit, I decided to leave my dog at her usual dog sitter back home so she can have canine friends to play with.
