The Silver Saddle's setting is quite lovely. Our experience, however, was not. At 4:30 in the morning, we were awoken to one of the owner's dogs barking. Loudly. Despite the dog's continued efforts over the next three hours, no one came out to move the dog or quiet it down. When my daughter took a shower in the morning, the... more

At the foot of the mountain lies the Silver Saddle Motel. We personally loved the whole experience. We had been looking for a comfortable motel in Boulder, and found out that the Boulder Mountain Lodge was FULL of drunks, so late in the afternoon we stopped at another motel down the street from the Silver Saddle, in which we found... more

The hotel sits in a gorgeous setting- at the foot of the Flagstaff mountains. This was also the reason the hotel staff gave for bugs in the bed. The room had broken down furniture, no smoke detectors, and a chain that you had to loop around the door knob for security. They charged $6.00 extra per person over 2 people-... more

The Silver Saddle Motel's website shows beautiful serene surroundings. This is the only part of the description that is acurate. The canyon is breathtaking and the creek is a short walk away. The motel, however leaves MUCH to be desired! The place is a complete dump. Our room was dirty upon check in- the carpets were not vaccuumed, and the... more

I stayed at this motel for an extended weekend. I was in Boulder for a business meeting and I wanted to be as close as possible to Eldora to go skiing on the weekend. Silver Saddle seemed the best choice, being the last motel in Boulder on the road that goes to Eldora. It was cheap, well below the rates... more

We stayed in this hotel during our trip to Colorado because we were on a budget and could find no other rooms available in our price range. The decor in the room looked liked it had been there since my birth in the early 70's. Overall, the room was fairly clean with some scattered trash under the bed. Security in... more

While this motel's location lives up to its description, the property itself leaves much to be desired. The unit I stayed in was NOT clean and was sadly in need of repairs and decorating. The motel's advertising suggests a quiet, rustic setting but one which we discovered was overpriced and overstated. My concerns could be put into two categories: aesthetics... more

Silver Saddle is an inexpensive alternative for Boulder, CO. Its clean and the proprietor is very friendly. Wonderful views of the foothills. This motel lies right on the Boulder Creek path. During the "heat wave" last week, I was able to walk to the Boulder Creek and splash around. You can walk the path about 1/2 mile to the outstanding... more
