Hotel Boulderado

10/10 Excellent
"BEAUTIFUL historic gem that leans into the mountain-y culture of Colorado. Staff was *SUPER* welcoming and friendly, answering any questions we had about things to do in the immediate area. It is located off a pretty active area of "downtown" but they shut all the lights off at night, which is nice, if you get a room facing town. The restaurant (Spruce) was okay but the staff was very friendly."

"A really great location if you want to be a short walk from the Pearl Street Mall. It’s a B&B so every room is unique and historic. The rooms are dated, but that’s expected in a historic house. Parking is available for $25 per night. The buffet breakfast was above average. Clean and comfortable."
