- The location was fine for our purpose to being in Boise.
- Small rooms, old facilities, soiled carpet, old bedspread.
“This is not a motel that we would pick to stay on our own. Actually I made an error when I clicked the buy my room now button. It was probably clean enough, but just old and not appealing.”

- Located near Downtown Boise. Near many attractions such as the zoo, art museum etc.
- It is an older motel, but it was clean.
“It is located near Downtown Boise. It would make walking to Downtown instead of driving, very nice. I noticed that it had an outside pool that would be nice in the summer time. Of course it was iced over as we stayed in February. It is near the Ann Morrison Park and Zoo and Art Museum that you would be able to walk to these instead of trying to find parking.”

- The room had a refrigerator.
- It was old, horribly noise, horribly located next to a parking garage.
“This hotel was far below my expectation. It was old, dirty, no blow dryer, it was noisy, horribly located, the lobby reeked of cigarette smoke. It was ironic that from standing in the lobby signing a document stating that I would not smoke in the room, I reeked of cigarette smoke.”

- Close to the center of Boise.
- They put us in an old section of motel with stained carpets dark & dingy.
“We thought we were to be in 2 star hotel and maybe if they had us in newer section it would have been. Disappointed to find if we had spent just a few dollars more we could have stayed in nice three star hotel in Boise instead. ”

Location:[7]
- The lady at the front door was very sweet and helpful.
- The non smoking room smelt like smoke and things did not work.
“It was right off of the main road, pretty easy to access. The late night bar type thing they had provided lots of unwanted smells when you first walked into the lobby, so my first impression was not good. The rooms were also smelly. We were able to walk to a good place or some food late at night and the bed was very comfortable. The TV controller did not work and the variety of channels was limited. Trying to contact them to talk about it has been a pain. I would not say I had and excellent stay but, I would consider staying there once more, because we got a good deal. But I never pay the full skiing price for that room ever in a million years.”

- found a few bugs and a hair
“It was a good hotel, not far from lots of places to eat and also the freeway (if you're just passing through like we were). It had a good continental breakfast and everyone was nice. The pool was cold but the hot tub was nice. If you're passing through Boise and need a place to stay this is a good place.”

Staff:[7] •
Location:[5]
- The room was clean
- The lobby and breakfast area had a very strong smoke smell.
“The first impression I had was when driving up to the hotel which I didn't think was anything special and much more on the lower end of hotels. Then in the lobby the smell of smoke was so strong it hurt my chest. I was, at this point, pleasantly surpised to see how the room was clean and free from the smoke smell. There was only two bath towels left each day and I usually use two myself so I had to share which was a bummer. Most hotels I've been to leave at least four. The breakfast was fine, nothing fancy but it was right next to the smelly lobby and so the breakfast area was just as stinky. I couldn't sit in the breakfast area to enjoy even a muffin, I just took it back to the room. I did a little business while I was there and the staff was very helpful by faxing some items for me and contacting me when I received anything. They did not deliver anything to me but I was contacted and for that I was grateful. Overall the stay was fine as long as I didn't spend too much time in the lobby.”

- While being gone for 2 weeks, we were allowed to keep our truck there at no charge.
- Free breakfast started at 6am, not at 5am.
“If you come to Boise, stay here. Nice outdoor pool, great little lounge, and very nice staff. Close to airport and downtown. Rooms are on the older side, but very clean. If you forgot something, just call the desk, they will get it to you. (They loaned me a hairdryer.)”

- They understood and appreciated
- Decor was a bit dated and gave the "older hotel" feeling
“The University Inn lived up to its Website promises. All amenities were available as promised and the hotel regular staff operated as a concierge desk more effectively than many upscale hotels in the region.”

- It was adequate. Nothing more.
- Continental breakfast was poor. Rolls, donuts, etc. were stale and poorly presented. Barely qualified as a continental breakfast.
“It is located near downtown and near the Boise State university campus. It is an old rambling series of structures. all but one single story.”

- Good location, they tried to arrange our stay to having a pet
- We were put in a smoking room, other tenants had some sort of fight in middle of night, which caused our dog to bark
“All in all I think they tried to put us where we could easily walk the dog, but should not have put others so close to us since the hotel was not that busy, we explained that outside noises could be a problem with the dog in strange setting, and they did so she barked which I am sure bothered other tenants.”

- Price and location
- The hotel smelled SO bad that we could NOT stay!
“We arrived at the hotel at 12:30 at night and the desk clerk was very pleasant. We received our room key and it would NOT open the door of our 1st room. I went and found the desk clerk and he came to the room and attempted to open it and could NOT. He came back with a key to a 2nd room. We entered the room and could NOT tolerate the undescribely bad smell. The desk clerk graciously checked us into another room (our 3rd try) and again the smell was so bad and we were so tired after traveling all day that we elected go to a different hotel. My sister had just been released from a 3 week stay in the hospital and was not feeling up to all of this. We searched for another room in Boise Idaho and after stopping at numerous places, only to find that they didn't have any vacancy, finally found a room at Motel 6.”

I was alone with 3 children, I travel with them alot, . We have never made reservations, paid for them, and not stayed. This was the first time.

“The lobby was newly remodled as was the outdoor pool. The continental breakfast was adaquate, but minimal. We were located on the backside of the motel. There was outdoor access. The frontside of the motel look recently upgraded.The rooms were small and smelled badly. I felt like I was in a one star hotel.”
