Allergy Proof Your Home

Saturday, June 12th, 2010 at 1:18pm. 296 Views, 0 Comments.

Are you one of the millions of people who suffer from allergies?  I am.  Late Spring and Fall are the worst times of year for me.  Outdoors there isn’t much we can do.  Indoors is another story!  Here are some ideas to make your home more comfortable.  1) Replace wall-to-wall carpeting, if possible.  Carpeting traps dust.  Flooring such as hardwood, tile and linoleum is better.  2) Avoid upholstered furniture which can trap allergens.  Wood, plastic, leather or vinyl furniture can be wiped clean.  3) Wear a mask and gloves with cleaning and vacuuming.  4) Use exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom to avoid mold and the potential congestion and other allergy-related symptoms associated with mold.  –WebMD Medical…

Hampton Inn & Suites-Denver/Parker...absolutely the best!

 Ranked #1 for business in Parker

 *Traveler Reviews... 

I found this property to be exceptional. The architecture is not cookie cutter and my corner suite was absolutely enormous. I had a nice sitting area, a king bed, and a decent sized bath. Like all Hampton Inns, there is a breakfast area in the lobby. This one was particularly nice and the staff member running the show there was always pleasant and cheerful.

Decided to stay just on the outskirts of Denver. This is a great property. A short commute into crowded Denver. You have easy access to go any direction to Denver and easy highway access.

The staff here is top! Easy check-in, the breakfast lady was outstanding. Front Desk was more than helpful with recommendations of restaraunts. There are several…
