VERY dated rooms and decor and dimly let
The shower was meh
There was no housekeeping whatsoever over the course of the week
My keycard didn’t work for two days
The coffee was great though, and my colleague loved the food at the restaurant (I didn’t try it myself)
I’ve definitely been to much better hotels at the same price

I reserved a double queen room, received a one bedroom. No amenities, no phone, cheap towels and old rundown and damaged room. No restaurant, no shuttle and no services. Do not stay. The pictures on the Internet are old and not what it looks like. Very disappointed.

early check in would have been nice. They said they 'don't do early checkin".

They are working to update and refurbish the hotel. My room was not updated but was tasteful and comfortable. Everyone I met at the front desk was beyond friendly and helpful. I found it to be a great value stay and the location was great. While the room was older and needs an update, it was clean and had what I needed. I'm excited to see how things are when they're done with the remodel and the restaurant opens back up.

It is an older hotel but very well located for taking our granddaughter to her freshman year at CU Boulder. Nice area to walk/run in - lots of trails and paths. Joseph at the front desk was personable and very good. WiFi is spotty and the restaurant is not open but there are many good eating places nearby. While not new or updated, it is the most reasonably priced hotel in the area.

No wifi x 4 days, unusable outlets, poorly draining tub, toilet running, stains on upper wall from previous water damage,no vents, construction during the day for renovation.
2.0
The staff was extremely polite and professional. Unfortunately the hotel itself is poorly maintained and dirty. I left two days early and checked into a different hotel because the room smelled like a unclean locker room. The curtains were stained and smelled as well. The tub didn’t drain well. All the rooms were full due to move in time for CU Boulder students. Since, I was traveling out of State I thought the hotel conveniently close to the CU boulder campus. The condition of the hotel shows that the owners obviously do not reinvest in maintain the hotel. Although, it was close to that CU Boulder campus I would absolutely never stay there again unless a new owner or management took over to revamp the place.

The room was clean, had microwave & fridge. Tv worked after I put an order to have it fixed. The hotel is charming, location is good. The low score was because the hotel had no working wifi for the 3 full nights/days I stayed there. There were meetings I take late at night & early morning - I could not do. What was worse is that there was enough wifi for a phone connection but not enough strength for a laptop even in lobby. So, for the first 24 hrs- I had my company help desk on the phone. The front desk staff were polite about it, both gentleman and lady explained they were having problems with the vendor, However, they had no working solutions for me at all. Finally there was a manager on the day, I was checking out who continued to tell me about his frustrations with the vendor - when I told him I didn’t care about his problems & that I lost 3 days of work - the response was rude and they said you could have gone to a different hotel. Upon leaving, I suggested they try a different provider - front desk yelled and said he didn’t want to talk to me anymore and that I should not have have gotten a cheap $79 room on Expedia for the room. BTW, I paid $100 and cashed all my rewards for this stay. So now I am even more pissed, I overpaid.This whole thing could have been turned around had they tried to appease me, offer discounts or anything. Customer service isn’t just about asking guests to check out when they know the hotels are sold out when something isn’t working.

I especially liked how very clean this property was. Cheers to the housekeepers!

The property is under renovation and just unclean. We found underwear in our room.
2.0
The property has so much potential! Unfortunately it felt like we were catfished. The photos advertising the rooms were very pretty and had that classic historical vibe that matched the loveliness of the lobby. However, when we got to our room it may as well have been a motel six. Walls were damaged and sheets were cheeps and rather ugly. I understand that the property just recently changed owners and is under renovations. I just wish that was explicitly stated in the advertisement. We came to celebrate our 5th anniversary and we’re willing to pay extra for a room as promised but we weren’t ever warned that our room may not look ANYTHING like the advertised rooms.

It worked but is old, not well maintained, very trashy in the stairwell. AC air smelled bad but was fixed. To much money for the condition.
2.0
Could be one of the dirtiest hotels I have stayed in. Room was dirty, hallways always dirty, elevtaers were dirty, no cleaning of the room. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.
1.0
Was absolutely disgusting. Filthy carpets, hair and scum in corners of the bathroom, no exhaust fan, faucets were loose so difficult to select water temp. Mini fridge dirty and stunk, old coffee spilled in tray, overwhelming cloud of pot smoke drifting into room at 6:00 am! No service, no breakfast. Rude desk attendants. Showed recently renovated on website but definitely was not - was old and gross! Homeless sleeping under overhang next door. Couldn’t run cooler as was moldy and gave us headaches and breathing issues. Would’ve immediately left but it was graduation weekend in Boulder and nothing else was available. Terrible stay - never again! Stay at your own risk!

I check out within 10 minutes of being there it had a bad oder, the whole hotel was very outdated and poorly kept up. The restaurant was closed which meant there would be no breakfast as stated, they said it would be coffee and fruit. When I complained about oder they said I was not the only one.

Great Location for CU, rooms needed some TLC
2.0
It's a nice location overall, and I like the "old hotel" feel. I didn't like the smell of the room or the fact that half the room lights didn't work. Also, there was no mention of wifi accessibility at check-in. Over-priced for the quality we found.

It’s quaint,quiet & very comfortable. We stayed there 4-5 times before. I always sleep well there.

In need of some renovations. kind of nice but old and haggard

The lobby is very nice. That’s it for the positives. The hallway to our room reeked of marijuana, the garbage cans outside were overflowing, sketchy people hanging around by entry doors making us feel unsafe. Within 5 minutes of our arrival, police were on our floor banging on a guest room door. No idea why. The room was reasonable and clean. Beds were a tad uncomfortable. The walls seemed a bit thin since we could here the guest above is coughing! The towels provided were like sandpaper with no absorbency at all! Apparently there is no room service post COVID since our beds didn’t get made and we had to empty our own room garbage and get toilet paper from the front desk. The breakfast that was “included” consisted of a tangerine and coffee if you wanted. Seriously? The location could be great if it wasn’t for the fact that it is behind a grocery store, next to a bar I wouldn’t dare step into and our room looked out at the overflowing dumpsters and grocery carts filled with trash. I rarely give bad reviews and I am trying to be gentle, so I will say that my family and I will not be staying here ever again. Very disappointed.

We had 2 rooms. Ours was ok but my son’s was horrible. It smelled BAD the entire stay (wet cardboard smell), the floor in the bathroom was sticky and it generally looked like a place that no one put any effort into maintaining. Too bad to since it’s located so close to UC Boulder campus. I wouldn’t stay there again.

Loved the ambiance of this faded lady. The location was excellent and it was very reasonable in price. Nuce pool too.
