Fantastic stay!!
We had a great stay.
The only issue we had was that one of the members of our trip was confused by the concept of a hard boiled egg at breakfast. To quote - “how do we cook these?”
We will back.

This is a special place. It changed my opinion of Boulder as a city for the better. 10 minutes from downtown and feels like another world.

Cute cozy room, old school feel with a hot tub. Beautiful area! Called to check if I was going to make it before after hours which was considerate. Highly recommend this place!

May have been ok if someone was there to let you into your room. No human to welcome you. Did not end up staying there because though they say to text them so they can greet you no answer Worse customer service ever.

We loved our stay here! Now you get exactly what you see…it’s small, locally owned, old fashioned motel. But the staff was awesome, the rooms had a nostalgia feeling to them. The grounds and setting are ideal and honestly make up for any flaws the place has. The bed was comfortable and the room had everything we needed, except a coffee maker. But it’s a short few steps to the lobby and coffee is available all day. We would stay here again for sure.
