Hotel is new, safe, clean and attractive. But parking? Nope.
Pros:

Cleaning staff was attentive and efficient. Front desk people were courteous and helpful. Breakfast staff did a good job.

Cons:

Parking in the attached city-owned parking garage is a freaking nightmare! Perpendicular parking stalls are hard as hell to get into and out of and the cost ($25/day) is ridiculous to charge hotel guests. This alone would keep me from coming back.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay.
Pros:

The property was close to Boise Crntre where our convention was being held. Close enough to walk all week to meals. Friendly staff. Good breakfast.

Cons:

The hotel manager reprimanded a staff member at the front desk in front of paying guest. I feel so bad for the staff member. He was being so mean toward her on Saturday 7/18 around noon. I could not believe my ears when I heard him representing her in front of guests.

I wish I could of stayed a few days longer.
Pros:

My room was clean and tidy. The size of the room we had was perfect and the mattress was very comfortable.

Cons:

I hate to complain and I don't complain but just to be honest and truthful. The pool was clean and I loved the towels for guests, but I did not like how the pool enclosure felt very humid and warm. Maybe have a huge ceiling fan of some kind. Also the water pressure I wish was alittle harder.

Pros:

Staff was friendly, the welcome text was a nice touch 👌🏼

Cons:

Again the bed was a titch stiff, but I am one of those people that is only comfy in my own soft bed. So I don't hold the bed firmness against the Hotel in my ratings

And parking was a little tricky
