Mary's Motel

Stayed here total 3 nights! First two nights were given the room across from the lobby! It was a terrible experience! There was no security lock on the door, but the fake knob was left in, no warm water in shower. Location is pretty! Last night the room was in the row of the lobby and it was better! High price for the quality of room but they know there isn’t much of a choice there in golden!

Very outdated, definitely smoking rooms at some point, the bright yellow, cigarette smoke stained smoke detector (which is most likely very expired) pointed that out. Glad we only spent 1 night as I could feel this place slipping me into a deep dark depression, especially the bathroom.. do yourself a favor and spend the extra little bit and stay elsewhere. Only thing is it's in a good location, right next to the breweries and walking distance to downtown stores.

It cost me many dollars to stay here with the $25 charge for my dog. And I can understand that because they want to make sure a small non-shedding dog doesn’t mess up their pristine suites. Tho I feel like my dog would’ve had to have worked really hard to overtake the grime on the floor and the stench in the room with his own odour in one night. There was a plastic tube fashioned together with tape that held the rickety cords for the cable box which was both lovely to look at and precarious to work around. The bedding boasted a 20 thread count and covers from the Nixon era. The location is great and I appreciate the pet friendly option but it was such a laughable ripoff for what I paid. The kind of hotel where you feel like you need a shower after showering there, you know? But hey, at least it was almost $200 a night. 🫠

Room felt dark and depressing as soon as you walked in. Microwave in room broken. Kettle added bits to the water when poured out so unsafe. Toilet paper holder falling off wall. Wifi only partially working as appears not enough available IP addresses for the guests. Mostly clean but can tell only minimal cleaning done. Electrical outlet sockets all lose. If no ground prong on the plug, then easy for the charger to fall out of outlet. Lamp, badly needed for lighting, was unplugged and had to plug in. Not the worst place I have ever stayed at but will only stay here again as a last resort.

The carpet was dirty, had bad feelings if the bed is clean, found power socket with missing cover which is very dangerous. The location is good for people passing or hiking by.

Nothing fancy. Gets the job done. Service was really great. Owners were very friendly. Rooms were very clean. Centrally located.

DO NOT TRUST on the pictures displayed. REALITY is totally Different. I GIVE NEGATIVE ⭐️ RATING. Worst Rooms I ever seen, BUGS in the BathTub, ANTS walking around the corners of the room. Room has T-Bar ceiling , not Drywall, which let bugs to travel from Attic Space to the room walls. Every single thing in the room looks like 100 years old. Feels so Disgusting to sleep on the bed, Itchy all Night 😭. PLEASE spend few more DOLLARS and Book a decent room , You can Thank me Later.

Deserves 0 rating. Linens and blankets are soiled and not washed recently. No towel rails in washroom. Mattresses are horrible and aggravated my back pain. We couldn't sleep well.

For a budget motel it's adequate but still overpriced for the upkeep. Price of room was 150 I would not be complaining if was an 80 a night room. Old but some care has been taken. Sheet had some holes and indoor pool was noisy. Outside one ok. Customer service awesome! Place just needs a bit more attention.

Would rate less then 1 star if I could. I don't expect much from a cheap motel but WOW. Hair still in the shower from last guest food still in fridge also. Somehow even with all the doors and windows closed mosquitoes still get in. Room stinks, is filthy, couch and bed stained with I don't wanna know what. Ended up getting my air mattress ad blankets from my car and sleeping on them. Guy behind the counter was rude. If this is your only option for a hotel in Golden (as it was mine) save yourself the money and sleep in your car.

Uuughhh i hate writing bad reviews, but I hope this will save someone $130/night, and take a better motel in the area some business! the lady working the front desk was on her 3rd day, super new, and she was really nice, so the one star is for her! She was doing great given the amount of people that were in there complaining about their rooms etc! She was nice and friendly, and i am 100% positive that all of my complaints have to do with the housekeeping staff. *there was 1 towel in our room. no hand towels, face towels, bath mats etc. just one wimpy threadbare thing. when i opened it up, there was a crusty smear across it (I think/hope it was Alphagetty?!) so i took it to the front desk and showed her and asked for a full set of towels. She apologized and quickly went to the back and grabbed me a new one. Just one. Thankfully there was a lady in the waiting room who ALSO had no towels and had to come ask for some, so she was nice and gave me an extra from the stash she got. Yay! *another guest told me that there had been a large drug bust there the night before, in the room that she had just checked in to - when she got into the room it reeked, (not like marijuana, but like meth or something worse!) so she asked for a new room, and got a new one, however, when she went into that one, someone was already in there! So she was currently waiting for another (third) new room. Shitshow. *the pool was absolutely terrifying, but for some reason my travel partner decided to go for a swim. Upon getting out, he had 3 large welts/bites of some sort on his chest and back. (His own fault, i know. So gross.) *the housekeeping staff was rude. I asked front desk if could borrow their blow dryer, and she said someone from housekeeping would bring it right over. 40 minutes later, I flagged housekeeping down as he walked past my room, and he said i'd have to go get it from the guy in Room 151. Um. No. I don't think so. Can you imagine? Knock Knock - "Hi, stranger! It's my turn for the communal blowdryer!" No. So i told him "Um. No." and he went away, and in about 20 minutes, the nice man from Room 151 came over and gave me the blow dryer. Ugh. So weird. I have stayed in lots of motels, and i don't mind a bit of "character" or older furnishings/decor, etc - but i can't deal with half-assed stuff like 1 towel, toilet paper stuffed in the peep hole (wtf) ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M PAYING $130 / NIGHT! Anyways. The TV worked, so that was nice.

You get exactly what you pay for here, so the price is right. The room is not that clean, sheets look like they had not been changed from last guest, very wrinkly. But they had free wifi and cable TV and are within walking distance of great rest. So if you are looking for a cheap, decent enough place to stay, then this is your place. It could be worse that's for sure.

You know what - budget motels still can be good. We've stayed at a lot of places in Golden and If you accept that this place is not only affordable but crazy close to Whitetooth Brewery and launching distance to Kicking Horse, you'll find this place just fine. So we stayed here during the polar vortex from hell. The room we checked into felt "cold" and just couldn't get it warm. Not only did they move us right away, checked in several times afterwards to make sure we were comfortable and warm. Staff was very nice and helpful. Why only 3 stars? It's a budget motel! It's not the ritz. But it's a darn good one and we will definitely stay again. Recommend the deluxe rooms to have a bit more space and comfort.

Service was sooooo very friendly. TV took a bit understand but they coached me to get it working. I showed up late but likely seemed sketchy. No presumptions on their part, no problems caused. This place rocks !!!! Can't say enough good things. If you want mega cheap go to a hostel but if u require privacy this is the place to be, it can't be beat. I regret not catching the names of the staff but y'all are great. A++++++

I have stayed in many hotels around the world. I have to say this is the worst hotel room I have ever seen in North America. The front desk clerk was extremely rude and acted like he was doing me a favor. The room smelled horrible. The soap and shampoo were rancid, the toilet and bathtubs were dirty. The bedspread was filthy and the curtains were transparent. I had a bright light shining in my room all night. Stay away from this place and sleep in your car if you have to.

Nice enough place the twice that I've stayed for work. Both times my experience was nothing like the reviewers above. Also, price was very reasonable. Will stay there again.

I've never felt compelled to write an online review before - until I stayed at Mary's Motel. This motel was the worst motel I've ever stayed in. The carpet was razor thin and dirty. The towels were grey and worn down to almost nothing. The bathtub wouldn't drain. The mattress was droopy. The pillow cases had stains. It was a non-smoking room but it smelt of cigarettes. All the furniture was dirty and dated. I could go on... If the nightly rate was 55$ I wouldn't have been so disgusted but for 115$/night plus taxes I genuinely felt ripped off. This motel needs to be burnt down and be rebuilt. Its beyond repair. There are other very nice modern hotels available in Golden, albeit for more money but I'd say its worth it.

Great little place in the middle of mountains. The rooms had everything I was looking for and the guy at the front desk was so helpful. If I'm ever in Golden again, I'll stay here.

For 158$/night, no breakfast, no Splenda for coffee just the cheap crap, crappy ketchup package style shampoo, cheapest soap you can buy, worn out pillows and mattresses, wifi didn't work, tub didn't drain properly, sink stopper stuck, should be charging half as much...

We stoped for the night here after researching hotels in Golden on a bike trip through Canada. The rooms are nothing like the pictures on the internet. Terrible misrepresentation. Apparently they have remodeled a couple rooms so they could take the pictures. Bed springs squeak. Pillows are old worn out junk. There was mold around the tub in the bathroom. They have the fridge, microwave, tv and cable box all plugged into the same outlet. Great fire hazard. We would have left had we seen the rooms first!! There are good hotels in this town but this certainly isn't one of them!!
