Hyatt Place Boulder/Pearl Street
The rooms were clean, Jessica was awesome at the bar, the breakfast buffet was great. Parking for an additional 25 a day kinda stunk but cheaper than moving around car. Hotel should pay for that not customers. Being located on Pearl street is not true. Its on pearl Parkway and is a 20- 30 min walk ...
