The sweetest place to stay in Boulder
We loved our night at the Foot of the Mountain Motel. It was exactly what I hoped it would be and was a very comfortable place to stay with my husband and two young teens. We dipped in the creek, took our breakfast out back to watch the bunnies and birds, and walked to Pearl Street for dinner. The customer service was the best part though - old-fashioned, kind, responsive, and friendly. My husband and I both felt like we were staying at grandma's house. So cozy, comfortable, and sweet. We will definitely be back!

Fun & unique!
If you want a more personal, quirky, charming place to stay- this is it! The setting can’t be beat- mountain behind you, little park & snow melt creek 15 ft across the road. Sit outside in the red Adirondack chairs & people, chipmunk, squirrel, rabbit, helicopter, maybe even bear watch! VERY clean although definitely vintage & rustic furniture & fixtures. Super comfy beds. PLENTY of pillows & towels! Never have enough in a chain hotel. Fresh ground coffee! Simple breakfast, enough to get you going. Lovely folks work there. If our son decides on a school in the area, this will probably be our landing spot when we visit. It was cozy, comfy, felt good.

I love this motel. It has gotten significantly more expensive over the years but it’s still amazing. The MOST COMFORTABLE SOFA BED!! I know, crazy! And the queen bed was equally fabulous. Boulder Creek is just across the street. New ownership seems very involved & local. Now the BAD NEWS: There was a water leak that resulted in 2 of my 4 days being without water for 4-6 hours during the day. I’m from a southern city with frequent ‘boil water’ advisories, so I could deal with it. It’s Boulder; just get patchouli. When I went to speak with someone about a really late checkout, I was met with defiance & attitude. I work at a Forbes 4 diamond hotel, so I know what I was asking for but was surprised by the quickness of negativity. I paid over $1000 for 4 nights & was unable to receive Grace & accommodation when I needed it. I’ll return, of course!!

Property is very old but it was pretty clean. The bathroom tub had large stains in it that gave me pause before I realized it was stains and not just dirty. Beds and pillows were comfy. Location across from the park was a pretty cool feature. They don’t rent tubes, only sell them so we weren’t able to try tubing since we flew out the next day and couldn’t bring big tubes with us. It would have been a nice feature if they had rented them as well to people who fly in. The water was shut off when we arrived and again the next day for some sort of repair but they let us know and it wasn’t much of an issue. The breakfast was a basic continental with some decent options and served in a cute little living room area.

Very outdated and the room was very small. Had a very, very bad smell in the kitchenette area which the staff did try to help fix. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had the hideaway suite with the deck and hot tub which was amazing! The location is EXCELLENT with the park and rapids across the street.

Altho this place is older, it was perfect and the staff was very nice. She had bikes for rent, the park, bikepath, and river were right there. We rented scooters each night to go to dinner. We had a great stay.
