10/10 Excellent
"This is actually one of the better properties we have stayed at in recent years. The staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great; the dinner reception was a little lacking food-wise but the full size free drinks (two per person pernight) made up for that. Describing the pool as a rooftop was a little misleading as it is actually on the roof of the second floor but it was very nice and not crowded the afternoon we used it. We had issues with the TV and wi-fi when we first arrived but those were resolved same day. Overall, I would highly recommend this facility if staying in Boulder. Within walking distance to a ton of things too!"

"I have been going to Basecamp Boulder for the last four years, and I do enjoy my stay there. Itโ€™s a good location and the little bar/coffee bar/deck area are charming to sit and read. The hot tub is great. The beds are comfortable. The staff is super nice. But I have noticed the rooms getting a little more run down each year. Also, the last two times Iโ€™ve been there, they have no in-room coffee. Their special pour-over coffee packs seem to be hard to keep in stock. Lastly, Iโ€™ve never gotten used to the lack of a mini fridge. I always forget thatโ€™s a thing until I want to keep something cold - like a leftover from a restaurant or drinks. My complaints are small , but itโ€™s not a cheap place to stay, so I wish those little things were not noticed at all."
