The only thing I can say bad about this place is that the sink drained slowly. Really, that's it. The location is fantastic and the bathrooms were spacious and updated. Sheets were clean and pillows were plump. I couldn't have asked for a better stay and at such a great price, this hotel is a true gem in downtown Boise.... More

The Safari Inn downtown was clean, quiet, had a decent breakfast-and was close to much of downtown. A block and a half away from the convention center, and for the price can't be beat. I'll be staying here again when I come back for pleasure trips-and even for business unless I have to stay elsewhere.

I just stayed there, and only one night. The room was very clean and comfortable, and had plenty of amenities. There's even a very easy-to-use safe in the room for small items...can fit a laptop in there!! The wi-fi was great, plenty of parking, and is right near Asiago's restaurant where my son works, so that was a huge plus!... More

This is the second time my wife and I have stayed here and we love it! The continental breakfast is very tasty and the wii-fi is fast and reliable. We both slept really good too. They have some suites that provide more room but any room is comfortable.

Was in town for business. Normally stay at the standard business hotels. This place was clean, convenient to everything, good service and great value for the money. Will most likely stay their again when I need to return to Boise. The breakfast was nothing to write home about, but the coffee was fine.

Really handy location and good value for the price. Don't go for the breakfast, it's very basic and there are so many good places to eat close by. The Wifi was frustrating @ times, but just have to be patient. I slept really well even tho I was on the side facing the pool and road. I'd stay there again

Update the bedding and I would have been pretty happy. Very quiet and dog friendly! The front desk staff were polite and efficient. They have a pretty steep tax in Boise that kinda made my eyes pop for the final bill. A huge place with all the needed amenities, little dated but spacious.

A $100 upfront room deposit for possible damages? OMG, we're 70 years old and can't stay up long enough to wreck anything! This depoit was not disclosed to us beforehand. The desk person shoved back to me the printout of our reservation without looking at it saying that she didn't need it. She then entered the wrong name and told... More

This hotel is clean, safe, quiet and offers pet accomodations, breakfast, and easy access to all the attractions in downtown Boise. If you are on a budget, this is a great hotel. The only issue I had was with internet connection. But the convenience and amenities more than made up for it.

Stayed here one night while in Boise on business. The hotel feels like it is an old Best Western and could use a few upgrades. The best part of the hotel is that it is located downtown and is close to a lot of nightlife within walking distance. I did not utilize the continental breakfast in the morning. The workout... More
