It’s cute and outdated for sure! Exposed plumbing in our room with a bathroom that is very small! I’m 6’ 200lbs and I had a hard time turning around in the shower.

Great little motel at the foot of Boulder Canyon. Easy walk to Pearl Street, and right on the Boulder Creek Path. Rooms are clean and quaint, but a little dated. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is a hot tub, but only for guests staying in suites. Breakfast is included and was a nice addition. Overall a nice place, and we would definitely stay again.

Great base camp for exploring the mountains near Boulder. Great for the price! Heaters in the rooms are a bit loud but to be expected for buildings this old.

Best described as on the rustic side. Room had a lot of character. Bathroom was finctional althought airplane sized but did have a small shower.and lots of hit water. Only baseboard heat in our room (bathroom had an additional wall heater. Firtunately it was not very cold f8r December. If it was, baseboard would not cut it. Has a split air but only A/C. Sugest management upgrade to heat pump. Staff extremely pleasant and continental breakfast was more than adequate. It is located along Boulder Creek which has a great walking/bike bath. Easy 15 minute walk to downtown shops. Overall, good value for the price.
