Easy cute stay in Boulder

We loved our stay at Basecamp. The hotel was quiet and very comfortable. The decor was so cute and we really appreciated this. It was walking distance to Pearl which made for a nice/safe night. The hot tub was also nice!

We arrived and told us our room was not ready. An hour later they called and told us our room was ready, along with a text confirming this. When we arrived for the second time they said it wasn’t ready and we had to wait an hour. Once in the room the ceiling in the bathroom was chipping and falling down. The light fixtures were slightly hanging off the wall. The mattress seemed really old and was formed to previous people laying on it. Not the cleanest place for the price. The staff however was very friendly.
