Neat little hotel. Pretty nice place. Clean. There is zero sound proofing between rooms. There was a guy talking on the phone next door and he sounded like he was in our room.

The room was pretty cramped. We moved the bench out from under the stairs so we had somewhere to sit besides the bed. This is more for skiers, I think, who are only going to sleep in the room.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We do have a lot of skiers come to stay with us in the winter, however want our property to be acceptable to a wide array of guests. We regret that the room was not large enough for your needs. Please contact our front desk the next time you stay with us and we would love to offer you a larger unit!

Noise noise noise. You can hear people talking in nearby rooms. Showers running. Toilets flushing. Many reviews about this issue suggest they are working on it. Doesn’t seem like much has happened. Great rooms! Great beds! Great hotel. The noise ruins the experience.

HI Shane, Thank you for staying with us and we apologize for not meeting your expectations. The sound proofing project has proved to be very challenging but we have not given up and hope to see it through to the end, asap.Basecamp Lodge Golden

Spent 2 nights, we were on the ground floor and the window faced the parking lot which meant when the curtains were open people could look in. Staff were friendly, there is a coffee area available for coffee and tea. Golden itself is an okay town, nothing wildly exceptional. Had amazing pizza at 'Red Tomato Pies' in town, and saw a few shops.

HI Cayla, thank you very much for taking the time to send us review and some feedback. That is the best way for any company to gauge what is needed to take the guest experience to the next level. I am happy to tell you that we will be installing some reflective privacy film on all of the lower levels windows. We hope to have this project completed in the next couple of weeks.We hope you will visit us again the next time you are in the area. Have a great day!!Basecamp Lodge Golden

Property was in an easily accessible location with lots of free parking. Nice views of the mountains from all rooms. The room with loft bedroom was quaint and unique and great for solo travellers or couples. The main sitting and dining area was impressive with the large log beams, fantastic stone fireplace as a centre piece and free 24hr coffee/esspresso machine, tea, and oatmeal and WIFI. Extremely friendly staff. Code to room very convenient so you don't worry about keys. Walkable pathway to downtown Golden. Bicycle rental or loan would be a great addition to this property.

This a beautiful clean property however it is ridiculously loud. Very thin walls and there are ear plugs provided in the bathroom which means this is an issue. Quiet times are 10pm -7 am which for the most part was fairly quiet but I was shocked at how you could hear everything. People in the hallways. People talking in the room next to us. TV in the room next door. Just a very loud place to stay. Other than that it was good. Likely won’t stay again due to the noise.

For the price of a hotel you get less, we had door code problems and seemingly had to talk with some in Asia to get in the building when it was -20 out, standing outside for 15 min. Loud and they know this so they give you ear plugs. The 2 story rooms are cooking up high and cold down below. Bed was comfy and it was clean with easy access to town via a 15 min walk along the river. We wanted to check it out and now we know.

We enjoyed everything about this property except the amount of noise from other rooms. Neighbouring guests having a casual conversation sounded like they were in our room. The provided ear plugs came in handy and the quiet time hours were followed so it was bearable.

This is a quaint little property with the bed up in the loft that you can only get into on one side. If you get bored, you can easily hear the conversations going on in the room next to you is there does not seem to be any insulation between rooms.
