We loved the charming atmosphere and the wonderful pool area. The location is perfect for exploring downtown, and my teenagers appreciated the nostalgic vibe of the place. It's a cozy spot that we’d definitely consider returning to next time.
My kids wished there were more entertainment options for teenagers.

The room was spacious and clean, which was nice. The bed and pillows felt really comfortable for a good night's sleep. Also, having a fridge was super handy. The decor gives off a retro vibe that matches the motel's theme. Close to a few eateries, which worked out well for us. Can't complain about the price either for the quality we got.

The El Rancho Boulder Motel provided a clean and spacious room that exceeded my expectations. I appreciated the vintage aesthetic and the motel's convenient location within walking distance to excellent dining options.

Lack of Wi-Fi access in rooms was inconvenient.

The location made it easy to explore nearby sights, and the space in my room was impressive, especially with the mini kitchen facilities. However, the noisy A/C unit detracted from the overall comfort. Additionally, the lack of cleaning supplies for used dishes was a bit frustrating. Finally, finding bird droppings around the pool was off-putting, making the area feel less sanitary.

This was just a fitting option for a couple of nights in Boulder City with high value for money. The staff was nice and promptly changed our room when we had issues with noise from neighbors. Just be cautious about the Wi-Fi, as it was only available in the office at times.

I spent one night at El Rancho Boulder Motel and found several aspects worth noting. The room had a charming retro vibe, which I really appreciated. It was clean and spacious, making me feel comfortable immediately. The location was fantastic, close to Hoover Dam and local eateries. The staff was friendly, ensuring a smooth check-in process. However, the air conditioning struggled to keep the room at a comfortable temperature, leading to some discomfort. I also noticed the bathroom tap wasn't functioning well, but it wasn’t a major issue for me since I was only staying for one night. The pool area could use some sprucing up. it felt under-maintained, which was disappointing especially considering the warm weather. Overall, a decent option but could use some improvements in maintenance.

Stayed for a night. Clean room and great outdoor pool setup. Check-in was disorganized, not what I expected for the price.
