    what a cute little inn in Boulder, CA. upon our arrival we were greeted by the receptionist. we checked in pretty late like 7 pm or so. they rooms were nice and had it unique charm. rooms were clean though some areas needed attention. count help but notice that there may have been a leak of some sort by the refrigerator. the carpet was wet. i was impressed that they had a letter or note saying all their water ( from the faucet was drinkable because it was filtered water) they have a big pool and couple of hot spas. along with some fire pits also they have nice balconies. the room had: microwave, mini refrigerator, iron, ironing board and plenty of towels along with drink ware. pea soup in is conveniently located near the freeway exits 246 and 101. which is nice and near by a lot of fast food restaurant. complimentary breakfast from 6am to 10 am. did not like that they have the old building next to them ( non vacant) there is plenty of parking for this inn. if you're on a budget this is a great option.

    First time staying here because the prices were a lot more reasonable than staying in Santa Barbara and Solvang. Such a cute family hotel! Swimming pool, hot tub, mini golf and fire pits. Our teens had a great time just hanging outside playing. The breakfast was danishes and muffins but better than nothing. We took a 10 minute drive down the street to Solvang, so it's a great location if you want to visit there. We will definitely be back again! The rooms were clean and comfy.

    I wanted to visit Solvang so I stayed at this hotel which is about 5-10 minutes away. The check-in process was smooth and there was free parking around the exterior of the hotel. The interior of the room was a little run down and outdated. My room had a microwave, fridge, and a balcony overlooking the courtyard. There was a TV in the room but didn't have a ton of offerings besides local and basic channels. Some amenities included a swimming pool in the middle, a putting green, corn hole, chairs and tables. There was complimentary breakfast but was just Danish pastries, muffins, and coffee. The pastries reminded me of toaster strudels; I'm not sure if they were store bought (probably) but they actually tasted pretty good. The hotel is within close proximity to Solvang which is the main attraction of the area. It's also about 45 minutes from Santa Barbara if you want to make that drive to a larger city. The actually town where this hotel is located (Buellton) doesn't have much, but this hotel has the basics.

    Just to be clear, this is not 5 star hotel but definitely a 5 star motel in its class and price range. All the staff is very friendly, nice, and happy to help. The amenities are awesome! They have a pool and jacuzzi, a little mini golf, cornhole, and fire chat tables. In the morning they provide danish pastries and muffins along with oatmeal, coffee, and hot chocolate. Convenient location- very close to downtown Solvang, Mission Santa Inez, and the Ostrich farm. There are lots of restaurants and gas stations, and it is right across from the hitching post restaurant from sideways. Rooms are clean and standard with two Queen beds, coffee maker, microwave, and fridge. Great value!

    The rooms are exceptionally clean and offer great value for your money. Our accommodation was quite spacious and included a mini refrigerator and microwave, with a hairdryer and iron also provided for convenience. There are numerous opportunities for relaxation and family activities, including cornhole, a large Connect Four game, and small fire pits perfect for enjoying a glass of wine by the fire. I highly recommend this establishment.

    Poop marks on the fitted sheet. Great housekeeping, huh? It even looks fresh, not a stain.

    Not sure how this outdated, run down poorly kempt motel gets good reviews. By far, the WORST experience at a motel or hotel in my 60 years. We arrived at 5:30 AM after fleeing the fires of Los Angeles. We needed a place to stay for a few nights trying to stay out of harm's way. Gama was very friendly and welcoming and did his best to take care of us, find us a room and let us check in early considering the circumstance. This was 5:30 am on Saturday and he gave us until noon Sunday for the price of one night. Very kind. BUT, we went to our room, at first everything seemed fine, until.....the beds. UGH. VERY uncomfortable, not firm in the least, so soft you sink into it and can't get out, and the sheets and bedding COVERED in a smelly cleaning product. it was nauseating. I couldn't sleep a wink in this bed even though I was exhausted. The sheet and blanket smells were giving me a headache. I tore the blankets off the bed to just lay on the flat sheet to decrease the stench and what do I find on it? POOP. Yeah.....fecal marks on the sheet. We gathered up our stuff that we loaded into the room put it ALL back into the car and went down to the front desk. By this time it is six hours later and the nice guy was off duty and instead was a frowny blonde-wigged woman with a mean look. We told her how uncomfortable we were and were leaving without any sleep and sickened by the sights and smells. She wouldn't give us a discount even after only being there for six hours, so we paid and we left. We will never return and I warn anyone going there that needs a clean FIRM comfortable bed. FORGET THIS PLACE. It's had its heyday and is running on fumes. Literally.

This property also has a small Business center, a nice lobby, a pantry for snacks and misc. items. They also have a great gym here, which is a big plus in my book. They have a Precor FTS glide multi function weight machine as well as free weights, treadmills, elliptical machines and a Peloton bike. The only thing that I would improve here is adding a second bench so if there are more than one person trying to use it, other than that a great gym and have all you need for a great workout. Next time I am in the area, I will for sure be staying here once again, great property. Enjoy!

The inn was a 10 minute walk from the marathon shuttle. The design of each detail is thoughtful and fun, from their lobby to the room, fitness center, and lounge. Each choice from color palette, font, and furniture made our stay feel like a little escape instead of being at a big corporation. We also visited the lounge for late night snacks and drinks and the bartender was great. Our only two complaints were the showerhead and barn door. The showerhead is a rainfall style, so for me, it wasn't angled or pressured enough to get the wash I prefer, and the barn door will slam against the countertop with the slightest outward pressure. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated our stay.

Staff were friendly and it was pretty fast to check in/check out. Parking was decent and never really had to go too far to find a spot. Overall the hotel was clean and cared for both inside and outside. Looked like it had a great bar/restaurant but didn't get a chance to go. Same with the pool, our room was directly over it and I could see people enjoying it throughout the day. The room was clean and kept up, no damage or ware that I could see. Also good sound rating as we never heard people in the pool or our neighbors. Big drawback to the room was it had no microwave so you have to go to the lobby to access one. The ice machine was also on the other side of the hotel through the lobby which was a bit inconvenient. If I could I would give this a 3.5 but there was a lot more positive than negative so the 4 is warranted.

One was inside, near the bed next to the balcony door, and the other was outside on the balcony, next to a small pile of cigarette butts. The sofa had a large dark stain with what looked like chocolate shavings. In the bathroom, fresh towels were placed on top of an exposed dirty pipe in one of the cubbies under the sink vanity. I'm curious to know why there are any exposed pipes in the first place. I'm sure having exposed pipes violates multiple city and health codes. One unique thing I noticed at this Marriott hotel was that the room had Febreze Car Clip Air Fresheners attached to the AC vents. I've never seen this at any other hotel. I'm not sure if this is standard practice at this hotel or if it was added to this particular room because the previous guest smoked in it. I emailed the hotel general manager, never received a reply or courtesy call. This is not what we expected from a reputable brand like Marriott.

You recycled an old Original signed hotel registration guest card from "someplace" from 2005! Did you have another property with 28+ rooms? And WHY would you hold onto papers that long & why did you not shred it? You should be shredding guest reg. cards & NOT hand out people's personal info in ANY capacity! 2.) Other few negatives to note: I did not trust the cleaning skills. A soapy, used washcloth was left hanging on the shower pipe. There is a bit of mold at the shower ceiling, upper walls, floor corners & wall tiles that should be bleached & the ceiling should be painted with mold resistant paint. Room AC vent should be disinfected to prevent it from smelling like ammonia (urine) when using fan only mode. 3.) Note: Caught on my security camera-mgr opening rm door to look in & inspect--10 min after I left the property. She did not call me. I did not trust their cleaners & I did not want folks in/out due to Covid. I always travel with a security camera now after I had cleaners open my door to attempt to enter my room at an SD hotel, while I was inside sleeping (thankfully the big security latch prevented them from entering) ~~So pls do not enter rooms when guests are not there & you agreed to "not enter". You asked about needing service & we agreed to "NO Service" & that I'd throw my own trash in the dumpster & I'd request items as needed.
