Perfect Location and Outstanding Staff in the Heart of Boulder
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at Basecamp Boulder and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to CU Boulder, Folsom Field, and Pearl Street, which made it easy to explore without worrying about transportation. What truly made the experience special was the team. Jon was there in the morning and made excellent coffee, plus he gave us a great breakfast recommendation that we loved. In the evening, Melina and Kyra were so welcoming and attentive, making the space feel warm and relaxed. Melina suggested the margarita on tap and the s’mores, and both were delicious. The entire staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable, and it really made a difference. We would definitely return.

Pros:

The location,bonfires and the small, well stocked bar are excellent. But the bed... it's sooo comfortable!!

Cons:

The bathroom is tiny and only has the light with the loud fan. I could hear the people above me snoring. And their music was loud. I was surprised how loud the upstairs room sounded in my room.

Pros:

The shared space with the games was cool, except soooo hot during the day with no ac. The hot tub looked nice, but it was too hot during our stay to try it.

Cons:

The beds sunk towards the center because the support bars were off, and the drains stopped up very easily. Also the carpet was old and dirty looking. Also it was a fairly long walk to downtown, for being advertised as a downtown hotel
