The motel is in an amazing location at the edge of town and right up against the mountains. There’s an easy walk or cycle to downtown, a beautiful creek with swimming just over the road and 2 great short hikes start from nearby. While we were there, there was also a mobile sauna and cold plunge pools in the field behind the motel that were free for motel guests to use. For an English family this felt like a really authentic old-style American experience. We also appreciated the friendly staff, continental breakfast and hot drinks in the office.

There was nothing we didn’t like. If we had to be picky, I suppose it’s quite an old-fashioned motel, so don’t expect all Mod cons just a simple American experience.

The location was so nice. It was great to be just outside of the city so we could feel like we were out in nature, but also to be close enough to go out and see what Boulder has to offer. We loved the close proximity to the park and to trails. The aesthetics of the place was so perfect for a mountain getaway. The exterior was so cute and the interior fit the vibe perfectly as well. All amenities worked well. The breakfast was so nice to have and it was great to have all the outdoor seating so we could eat and enjoy the view at the same time. Staff was always very pleasant and helpful!

Honestly can’t think of anything! We had such a great time here and would love to come back.

I loved the location. Easy to get to places of interest like Rocky Mountain National Park, Estes Park, Colorado Springs. Comfy beds and breakfast items very appreciated. Rustic and comfy!

All the staff were kind and helpful. However one person working front desk on May 21st in the morning was very rude and literally acted like a drill Sargent to me while I was trying to get coffee. I walked out of the office and just didn't get my breakfast or coffee. This lady was too rude and my peace is important. The rest of the staff were amazing. Maybe this particular employee needs some additional training on customer service.

So many great things! Staff was super friendly and helpful. The room itself was comfortable for me, my husband, and our 1-year old, and had everything we needed, as well is a charming old-fashioned feel. The location was also amazing for us, as it's located right across from Eben B. Fine park, which had a nice little playground and a good spot for baby to splash around in Boulder Creek. You're also right along a running/bike path so you can jog up into the canyon or straight into town along the creek. The breakfast was also great - with lots of options and a very homey feel and tasty coffee :) I'd definitely recommend a stay at Foot of the Mountain motel!

Wonderful, classic property. Incredible location for Pearl Street and Boulder Creek. Very clean and with great amenities. Very kind staff - allowed me an early check-in! UPDATE: I have now stayed here about 4 times with 3 more to go and I LOVE this place. The staff, especially Jeremy, is fantastic. The breakfast is simple but filling and I always look forward to it. I am using Foot as my home away from home while on contract and I just adore it. I can't wait to come here every weekend. It is truly a little slice of heaven.

I loved the vintage vibe of the place. I also loved the proximity to the creek. I went everyday to do a cold plunge. One of the best features was the sauna in the backyard. I realize it is not run by the hotel but it is an enormous added bonus to the property and I used this everyday and it would make me want to return. I also appreciated the simple breakfast in the morning it was perfect to be able to grab a banana and a coffee then go for a hike. Comfortable bed!!

The room was dark.

Amazing location, close enough to be able to walk into town and right by some trailheads so you can hike right out the door. Staff were all lovely. Breakfast was good and included cereals, boiled eggs, bagels, bread for toast, fruit, juices. Rooms have air conditioning and heating and we slept well. A charming motel, the best value we found in the area, and would definitely recommend.

The rooms could probably do with a bit of a spruce up with a lick of paint as they're becoming a little dated, but overall cosy and comfortable.

The breakfast is provided and is super yummy! Loved the porridge and bagels with eggs. Location is brill, a 10-15 minute stroll along the river to town. Close to hiking/running trails.

The only thing I found slightly frustrating was it was a little hard to get hold of someone before my stay to arrange getting into the cabin after hours. As promised they did text me the code with 24 hours of my stay though, so probably more was me trying to be super organised and soothe my anxiety about arriving in the middle of the night. They thoughtfully left the air con on for me which was appreciated as it was HOT! (Even at 4am!!) thanks FOTM

It was much better to be able to sit outside at night in front of your own little mountain cabin than being downtown in the middle of all the traffic and stores. It was quiet except for the one road. Lots of seating and even a few tables to have breakfast. Breakfast was better than expected, the people who work there take good care of it, refill everything and keep it neat. The motel is right above the best spot of the creek at Eben G Fine Park. Great for tubing , swimming and relaxing , lots of families going there. It was 96 degrees every day so we cooled off in the creek every day .

Not a lot of water pressure in the old shower.

It was a cute vintage motel perfectly situated for riding your bike or walking to town next to Boulder Creek .Cozy, and the breakfast was good. Hard boiled eggs and a variety of cereal and breads, with fruit and juices as well as coffee and tea. I loved that Ember and Ice were in the back meadow. That is a wood fired sauna and three cold plunge barrels. A fantastic way to ease the aches and pains if a hike or bike ride.

No microwave in room
