Very nice stay
Better than average breakfast, very nice outdoor heated pool, sufficient exercise room and decent enough hot tub. Great location for us. Good bed with fridge and microwave. Stayed here before and probably would again. Nice front desk man on evening shift!

Won’t stay here again.
Paper thin walls. Your hear everything in the neighboring rooms. Refrigerator in room didn’t work. Maintenance had to come fix it. Tub didn’t drain until I work on it for 15 minutes. Rooms seemed small for the price. The bed was very comfortable though.

A most convenient place
It is a great place to stay in Boise. It is close to BSU, Boise Library, the State Museum, the State Historical Society, a grocery store, and many fine restaurants, and it is not far from downtown. It serves a fine breakfast and has helpful staff. I just wished handicapped parking was a little closer and I would be placed not so far from the elevator.
