On a road trip thru Boise I stayed one night at this property. It was a fine stop over with a very comfortable bed (to my pleasant surprise) and the room was very clean. The whole motel is a bit dated, but very clean in it's appearance. It was obvious there was extensive maintenance activity taking place. I had the opportunity to chat with the management and discovered there had been a recent change and the direction of the new management was to bring the property up the standards of newly built motels. It will be interesting to watch the planned progress. The free breakfast bar was tasty with plenty of selection. I enjoyed this breakfast better than I did the $45.00 breakfast buffet I had each day for two weeks on a recent work trip to Italy.
They have just installed free Wi-Fi internet access, which is a must for todays business travelers. I was most impressed with the staff I came across. The front desk was very friendly, the chef for the breakfast bar had a happy disposition and looked like he was enjoying his work. As I was leaving, I ran into two of the housekeepers and they both were friendly and upbeat. Staff happiness tells me a lot about the way the property is run.
Overall I would highly recommend this property. It felt more like a hometown accommodation rather than a big, cold major chain.
I WILL stay here again.
