I have stayed there several times. Always good. It is rustic and dated but convenient and has its own charm. I would certainly go again but maybe not for some people looking for very high end facility.
This place is adorable and in such an amazing location, but the thin walls make it a nightmare for light sleepers like myself :( I wish I could report differently! I could hear the entire conversations of the people next door to me (as in it felt like they were in the same room), including being woken up at 3:30am when they got home and talked / moved around their room for the next hour. If FOTMM are somehow able to fix this there will be no stopping this hotel, it's truly special!

Love it!
LOVED our stay. This place is so cute, amazing location and great amenities. Would love to stay again.
Could be cleaner. The room smelled liked cigarettes and the bath tub was stained. The sheets were stained. But that’s okay, we had a really good time and the area was so beautiful, it was a nice stay and I would definitely come back.
Great gas heat in the room was perfect. The shower water was strong and great temperature. The beds are very comfortable. Breakfast is great! So clean and simple. Loved it!
I like the funkiness of the motel. It is 90 years old and in a pretty, quiet part of town. However, it seems that there has been limited maintenance, in the last decades. There are also no drawers in which to put clothing and personal items. The shower and shampoos and soaps looked so undesirable that my wife and I didn’t even bother showering there.
The motel is a must stay of you are in Boulder! The rustic atmosphere was very unique and very Boulderesque. The rooms have all wood interior and have the look of vintage appliance (fridge and phone). The paint was peeling in areas on the ceiling in the room, but other than that I was a great stay and will definitely be back!!
