Kind Staff and comfortable room

10.0

I was in town to help my daughter as she was having surgery. It was amazing to have coffee or tea anytime of the day. It’s those little things that help you get through hard days. Everyone was so kind and polite and the room was very comfortable.

Great Experience for my first trip to Boise

10.0

Staff here is awesome. I arrived at 12:30A on a Monday and Randy, the desk clerk made the check in experience great. My only complaint is that there aren't that many restaurant selections. But, downtown is only a $10 Uber ride

We will be back!

We had a school group conference we were attending in Boise. The hotel staff were absolutely amazing and so accommodating. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The students had a great time in the pool and hot tub and I liked having the fitness center available. Their breakfast was definitely one of the best I have had. Definitely recommend!

Well taken care of from start to finish.

10.0

We received a warm welcome at the front desk, and were given a spacious room with a view of the mountains. The room was spacious and clean, and the room was kept clean daily. We were also impressed with the tasty breakfast and the individual servings of freshly ground coffee.
