Awesome stay near downtown boulder!

We had a great time visiting Boulder staying in this VRBO. The check in process was easy and quick and everything was super walkable to the restaurant/bars/shops/everything that you could ever want really in downtown. The apartment is downstairs in their home and it was very easy and quiet with either of us disrupting each other.

Perfect downtown Boulder experience

Hosts excellent in providing all you could need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay, information and timely responses where appreciated. Walking distance to the Pearl Street area was exactly what we were hoping for and the few blocks there through the residential area was a beautiful walk.

Last Minute Booking

I booked this property last-minute for a quick stay from Denver and found it exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and situated in a stunning historic Boulder neighborhood. Though I only stayed for one night instead of two, the location alone makes it a great choice. Communication with the host was limited, but I didn’t require much interaction. Highly recommend for anyone looking to stay in one of the best areas in Boulder!
