    I'm a morning coffee drinker so would have liked freshly brewed coffee available in the little "honor room" breakfast area vs. the powdered coffee provided in our room. But there was a cute little coffee diner about a 5-minute walk around the corner. Also the bathroom shower curtain was old and too long. It sits in the water so it never fully dries and smells moldy. The shower could also use a grab bar as the tub floor was a little slippery.

    The location was great! Easy to walk to Pearl Street, the Boulder Art Museum, Dushanbe Tea House and the Boulder Creek path. A grocery store was also about 15 minutes away. The area was quiet at night and the room was clean and comfortable and roomier than most guest houses. We did not drive but for those that do having the parking right behind the building is a plus.

    The fromt facing room (Room 6) can get a little noisy due to traffic. The other rooms are great.

    Super clean and comfortable. The garden was awesome.

    Exceeded my expectations!!

    It’s less than a mile from Pearl St and an easy walk to so many restaurants and venues. Very clean, comfortable bed, well kept, peaceful vibes. If you are into meditation they have scheduled times to meet in the morning & evenings. Very comfortable! Would stay here again.

    In general I found the cost of accommodation very expensive in Boulder, BUT, I wouldn't say that was unique to The Boulder Guest House. I consequently booked there as it gave me the best value for the cost.

    The Boulder Guest House was in a PERFECT location for my needs and plans - I walked everywhere and felt very safe doing so. The room was clean, laid out well, had all the amenities I needed (including a great coffee bar!), and I really enjoyed the ability to grab breakfast (the BEST granola) when it suited me.

    One of the windows didn't have a screen so we had to use the air conditioner instead of having the window open.

    We had a great stay. The bed was super comfortable and the room was very clean. The breakfast and snacks were great and we appreciated having access to a fridge.
