Old motel but pretty well kept. Across the street you'll find the park along side the creek and trail. It's nothing fancy but super cozy.

The motel is in a perfect location. Right off of Boulder Creek. There is a park along Boulder Creek right across the street and easy access to the Red Rocks Trail of Boulder that goes through some really neat rock formations. The motel is very rustic. It was built in 1933 and probably has the original wood paneling. While I have no complaints about the main room (with beds (which were comfortable) and desk, the bathroom needs help. Our sink was stopped up, took forever to drain. The tub/shower surround and tub/shower were dirty. And the tub/shower surround very definitely needed to be replaced, or at least re-caulked. The shower pressure however was great and the water did not pool while taking a shower.

Too much money for what you get

It’s a great location, but we paid $290 for our small 2 queen cabin. It’s an old cabin and while it was clean, there’s nothing that warrants spending $290/night. The only reason we booked it is because of an emergency stay in Boulder. Besides the hefty bill, it was nice. But a tip: put coffee makers in each room. I had to walk across the parking lot in my jammies to get my morning wake up coffee.

I was in the area to hike and visit family. Very basic and rustic but clean. The location was great, close to everything and a beautiful park across the street. We didn't have time for the sauna. Hopefully next time. Parking was easy

We stayed in the Flagstaff which is the first owners home and the only space that has a very large kitchen sitting room. Two bedrooms, a dining room and a very small bathroom. The place is like stepping back in time, and that was fun for us seniors. We enjoyed being able to stay in such a large apartment because it gave us the area to invite friends to enjoy a few friends over for dinners. The only thing I would ask the property to do is some important maintenance of putting knobs back in cupboards and a light switch. Also fix the h bath tub nob on the hot side so it doesn't continuously move and burn a person. That's what would have made it perfect. That was it. It was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay and we would probably stay again.
