    What is not to like? The location is perfect for walking around town. My boyfriend and I walked to the University of Colorado's campus, downtown Boulder, and the 29th St. Mall, all from the perfect central location of the Briar Rose. Having once lived in the area, I was worried about the noise on Arapahoe Ave. (being a fairly busy street), but I never heard anything while inside my room. Everything about the Briar Rose is great, but I especially love two things about it: First, I love that they serve organic vegetarian and vegan food with a gluten free option. I have never been to a b & b that does that! Second, I love their commitment to being environmentally friendly. They provide you with a large glass bottle with which to fill an unlimited amount of filtered water. The shampoo/soaps are all in large, re-fillable bottles (so they aren't throwing anything away after a couple of uses). They recycle.....well the list goes on as to how green they are. I'm kind of an environmental freak, so it was so nice to not feel wasteful and guilty while on vacation. The staff are super friendly and extremely helpful. I've stayed at other hotels in Boulder, but after this last visit, I will never stay anywhere else! p.s. They have a meditation room where meditation classes are held, and if you want, you may join in on a class! I couldn't talk my boyfriend into this though.

    I stayed at the B&B for 2 weeks at the end of July (changing room a couple of times). It was great ! The staff are very friendly and there is a restful calm in the house. Great breakfast, bread and cookies available, not to mention the tea !

    Room wasn't cleaned daily. No coffee pot in the room and kitchen was closed in the morning to help ourselves to tea or coffee. Never met the owners. TV not availabe in room or common area. Breakfast made to order was a nice touch.

    I've stayed in several B&Bs and found Briar Rose to be quite nice. The location is excellent. The food was nicely done and just what I (a semi-vegetarian) wanted for breakfast. The setting was lovely and I thought the Zen meditation center was just what you would want from a B&B in Boulder.


    Great
