    Not exactly what I expected

    Unexpectedly friendly staff and a lovely river view made my stay enjoyable. The breakfast omelet station was a delightful surprise, providing a delicious start to the day.

    Limited parking during busy times led to a frustrating experience, and I noticed some noise from the HVAC units that disrupted my sleep.

    We really enjoyed the cooked-to-order breakfast with delicious omelets and the welcoming atmosphere created by the friendly staff. The small breakfast area was always quiet, making for a pleasant morning experience.

    river view
    great location
    awkward shower

    Autumn visits are lovely here! The river view from my room was divine and took my breath away. Plus, the location is simply unmatched with easy access to the falls and Riverwalk. Just lovely!

    Only downside was the shower, it had more pressure than my morning espresso!

    housekeeping issues

    Overall, the stay was enjoyable with a beautiful view of the river, though the parking was a bit tricky at times. The breakfast offered a made-to-order egg station which was impressive, but some housekeeping aspects left a bit to be desired. Otherwise, the room was clean and comfortable.

    omelet bar

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The views from our room were nothing short of amazing, directly overlooking the beautiful Snake River. I also loved starting my day with the hotel's amazing made-to-order omelet bar, where the friendly staff served freshly cooked omelets with my favorite toppings. To top it all off, relaxing in the evening with a complimentary warm cookie was the cherry on top of this good experience!

    The made-to-order breakfast was the best part! Fresh omelettes and homemade banana bread were a delightful surprise. The only bummer was the noise from the street late at night. 🌟

    cramped bathroom
    busy breakfast area

    The stay was delightful, especially with the fresh made-to-order omelettes at breakfast. Being close to the beautiful river trail was a huge plus for our family, allowing us to enjoy some lovely walks. We appreciated the cleanliness and the helpful staff, who went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed during our visit. However, the bathroom felt a bit cramped and finding a breakfast table was challenging since it was busy.

    Comfortable Stay with Scenic Views

    Our stay was delightful! The river view from our room created a serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxing. The breakfast exceeded our expectations with a delicious omelet bar. Don't miss the nearby walking path along the river for a peaceful morning stroll! Bring a hair dryer just in case.

    delicious breakfast
    friendly staff
    local dining options
    noisy street
    loud disturbances

    The breakfast was a culinary delight, giving me all the breakfast vibes with made-to-order omelettes and a diverse spread that could make anyone’s morning. Plus, the location made it tempting to explore backyard local eats like Jalisco’s Mexican Restaurant and Snow Eagle Brewing—so close you can almost taste the tacos and beer! The staff's warmth really made this stay a home run.

    It’s a bit bothersome with the noise from the street, like loud cars revving up outside at odd hours. Still, it didn’t put a damper on the overall experience—just a little reminder of the lively surroundings.

    Clean, well-equipped King Room with kitchenette was spacious and comfortable. The made-to-order breakfast, particularly the omelette and banana bread, was a delightful surprise. The staff's quick resolution of issues contributed to a pleasant stay despite the ongoing renovations outside. However, the pricing felt a bit elevated for the overall experience, considering the motel-like setup.

    comfortable bed
    rude staff
    cramped bathroom

    Comfortable bed and great river view.

    The front desk staff were rude and unaccommodating. I was initially given a small room with a bathroom that felt cramped and undesirable. After insisting on a change, I received a better room, but the treatment I received was disappointing, especially after tipping the staff for assistance. Their dismissive attitude really left a bad impression.
