The property was pretty unique with its wooden bedside table and wooden TV table. We didn't have an opportunity to enjoy more of it's facilities though (checked in late due to flight delay and check-out eary). I wish it had: - no carpet, wood floor like its furniture. - better coffee cup cover in the lobby, it didn't fit the cup and burned my hand.

I really enjoyed my one night stay! Check in went well, was able to drop luggage in room, and then go down for a glass of wine, enjoyed the outdoor seating, perfect for some family time, they have games and puzzles and a rock wall, jacuzzi and sauna! Complimentary coffee in the morning! John was very pleasant to chat with! Would stay there again!

Fun place! Some maintenance needed, perhaps.

The nicely renovated motel was fun and comfortable. The shower was great, and I liked the sitting area. Our unit had some maintenance issues, like a missing toilet paper holder and sink that needed attention, in addition to lack of amenities (housekeeping issues). The people at the front desk were nice, they had nice merch, and they make it a lot of fun with complementary coffee, cookies, and smores by the fire at night. There’s a jacuzzi, climbing wall, and laundry as well. The whole place was clean, and I would def stay there again but let the front desk know of things needing attention much sooner.

LOVED it here. Great rooms, communal areas and a great selection of drinks at the bar. Safeway is a few blocks away and the Main Street too. We will be BACK!

Budget Vibes

Had high hopes for this motel in Boulder. It gets high marks for proximity to Pearl St (10 min walk), grocery stores & amenities (2-min drive), rentable bikes, plus a burger place next door. It gets middling reviews for the things that were advertised but not available, such as a working sauna, s’mores kits & dependable WiFi. It gets meh reviews for the super tight parking, a weird smell in our room, the lack of vacuuming (enjoyed crunching the previous guests’ potato chip remnants for a few days) & lack of decent lighting, and the minuscule bathroom. Our room needs some maintenance love—bathroom door hook about to fall off, the beadboard paneling that is buckling, etc.

I like the basecamp theme and the coolers/decor in the rooms. The air conditioning worked, but I wonder if I could have set it to on vs. auto. It would only shut down for a few minutes and restart to stay cool.
