My stay at The Golden Hotel was wonderful, with excellent service and comfortable accommodations. though I did encounter a few minor issues. The location is absolutely perfect for exploring downtown Golden, making it easy to walk to various dining spots and attractions. I particularly enjoyed the delicious food at the on-site restaurant and the lovely views from my room, but I wish the exercise facility was better equipped and that housekeeping came a bit earlier.
