Adequate. Good cost.
Appears to be an older motel that has been updated. Rooms are adequate. Beds too soft. Front office/bar is really cute and staff is very helpful.

Flipped. Poorly. A fresh coat of poorly applied paint does not refresh this sad motel. Would not stay again.

I stayed at the hotel for two nights. The staff at the hotel was exceptional! I accidentally forgot my key in the room multiple times within 10 minutes of checking in and they were happy to make duplicates of the key. On the day of check out they were also able to accommodate a later check out time which I really appreciated. The hotel is also within walkable distance to Pearl Street which has a ton of coffee shops, restaurants, and shops. It's also conveniently located to a grocery store and other chain restaurants on the other side. It couldn't be in a more ideal location! The one piece of feedback I have is I wish I knew their lounge was going to be completely closed due to all week events. I think it's something that customers should be notified of.

Bad customer service and not clean.
We waited almost 30 minutes to check in. No one was at the check-in desk or the office. When you called the number provided at the front desk for service, it rang at the front desk and no one was there to answer. When someone finally showed up, she noted that she was the only person on staff at the moment in the entire facility. The manager needs to be present on site if they cannot staff the facility appropriately. This poor girl should not be expected to do the work of three or more people. She was friendly and upgraded us, which was nice, but I would not stay here again. Very poorly run. The room was not very clean. We had several bugs in our room and our sink was clogged. The carpet was dirty. It was super overpriced for basically being a cheap motel. Good location, which is about the only positive thing I can note.

We had to change rooms, the power went out. These rooms are like a days inn 40 years ago. No remodeling has been done. The internet was intermittent at best, movie apps would buffer or not work at all. I had to buy $40.00 additional data from my phone carrier. I never saw a maid in the 3 nights I was there, I had to go and get towels. The only good thing was the snarf burger joint right next door, and a 10 minute drive to Pearl st mall.

Basecamp Boulder is a really great, fun property. They have a cute coffee shop that even offers drinks at night… and has fire pits & smores kits. They also have ping pong & a rock climbing wall. The rooms are spacious!

I booked this property as it was within reasonable walking distance to Peral St Mall in Boulder. The cost wasn't cheap, by any means, and the amenities fell a bit short for what I paid and envisioned. For example, when I returned in the afternoon after a full day of hiking, my room hadn't been cleaned, erc and I had no clean towels. I lumbered back to the main building to inquire about the status for cleaning and was informed that they don't make up rooms until the customer checked out. Really, I asked?? I'm here for 6 nights?! They then said that I needed to request every day if I wanted the room addressed. I informed them at that time that, yes, plan on cleaning my room every day during my stay. Again, they reiterated, in a polite manner, that I still needed to come back daily to make the request. The gal handed me towels and was on my way back to my disheveled room. When I returned back on day #2 after a long. Hot and sweaty hike, my room, once again, was unattented. I had to mope back down to the main building and the same gal was working. She appologized and said they woukd clean it tomorrow. I said, absolutely not and I would prefer it be cleaned today. To her credit, she did have housekeeping go right in to clean but I ended up waiting in my vehicle for them to complete, which was not my ideal plan. To compound matters, they were supposed to provide in room coffee for every day of my stay. After day 1,they didn't replenish it and each day I would ask, they were

Fine if you don’t spend a ton of time there!
Pictures make it look better than reality. All in all, it is convenient to most things - but truly just a run down motel with a little lipstick.

4/10 Fair

Cute outside, awful inside. While trying to be cute and kitschy, for the price the property was bad. No coffee in rooms and no coffee in lobby unitll 8 am. Cost be $25 to door dash coffee. Ridiculous. The carpets are worn, the decor dirty, the tub uncaulked. It just looked like an old, crummy motel - not worth the $400 a night.

If you want to meet the nicest staff in Boulder - stay here! Everyone I interacted with was lovely! The property is really cute and the rooms are really fun decorated. Feels pretty rustic but nice. My only complaint was the bathroom - it was just small, but let's be honest....how much time are you spending in your room in Boulder?

I was surprised by the rock wall, ping pong table, and overall concept of a rec center at a hotel. I left wondering, "why don't all hotels have this?" Would stay here again and highly recommend to friends and family!!
